My dear Annie
I was very glad to have your nice letter & to learn that you are at Miss Partington's. It is most unlucky Dr Gully being gone out & I do not feel at all sure that Papa will be able to come away on Saturday so you must tell him we are all quite well & shall do very well without him till Wednesday. I & Georgy still have coughs but we are quite well & have been doing some lessons now Miss Thorley is gone. It is too windy for the little ones to go out. When Miss Thorley comes you had better ask her to take you to see Susy Scott. It is very nice for you Mrs Scott being there & I dare say Susy will often walk with you. Give my love to Etty & Brodie.
your affectionate | Mamma | ED
I should so like to see St Anne’s well & the hills it makes me quite thirsty to think of it
