From H. E. Litchfield to G. H. Darwin [8 November 1877]

Thursday

From R. B. Litchfield: Lord Warden

Isn't this a blessed date— We'd a first rate journey—all the way from Bâle in one jet— Special train round Paris well worth while & the Coupe lit toilette v. comf—washing ones hands & washing up R's food vessels such a comfort—goodish crossing— Everybody sick but he & nurse however.

H.E.L.

He is wonderfully fresh today Boat express arranged to stop for us at Bromley
