14 opportunity "extraordinere" [[sp]]— So I hope to have something interesting to tell you in my next letter, as I have been able to in this— At the best letters will be slow in reaching you, and intermittant [[intermittent]], and there will be difficulties in the way of getting them off - with much regularity, but you will know that I am doing the best I can any way. It is about time I heard from you, and I pay anxious visits daily to [[Moyan?]], [[Hay's]] in the hope of getting this first letter. I am feeling better than I did on the 15 on the ship, I must say I was worried there, and in a bad condition. I realized that I was getting pretty well on in years to take such a trip without "Mumsey" — However, I am going to take good care of myself, and you can believe I will be the happiest man going when I can set foot on Lovell soil - safe & sound. It is so long to wait without a word from you or the children, and so much I want to hear about [[Marino & Jerrys'?]] conditions. I do hope they are all right. Do be careful with the car, take no chances
