These came yesterday evening, and as the Parcels required altering in shape, to suit your box, I opened them, and have written down their titles as above – Is that all you expected from Chivers, and do you wish anything paid?

Your box is nicely filled up with these & some of Ela’s 8 & mine. The little leather key box did not fit in well with the rest – so I have taken charge of it, and will bring it with me on Monday – It is still cold and gloomy – but I hope you manage to keep warm at the Abbey.

The enclosed note has been left here by Mr. Llewelyn’s 9 Butler. Ela takes this

your affectionate
Constance
