Broadstone, Wimborne

Sept[embe]r.. 10th. 1907

My dear Poulton

We shall be very pleased to see you and your daughter on Thursday morning. The distance from Burley Village by Ringwood & Wimborne Station is from 16 to 17 miles so I suppose you will do it easily in two hours if you don’t miss the way.

I heard from Fred Birch [2] on Sunday. His letter had been just [figure crossed out] 32 days coming. He had to leave off in the middle to catch the post so I heard nothing about the place he is at. His address is

c/o Correio

Theophilo Ottoni

Minas Geraes

Brazil.
