I hope that you wont forget the "breeches", and wear them continually. Are there going to be any more women in the party? Your cold I trust is better. look out for snakes & poisonous insects, and when you get onto the donkeys back dont slide off and get kicked in the head.

Harry Wentworth came to see us yesterday staid over night all are well at his house. better drop a line on the way So, If you have any chance. we are having the same cold storm of rain here has been so
