Saturday.
Dearest Ba, I am at Mrs. Jameson’s . . to hear you can not come ; most properly. She wants me to go and see
an Exhibition, and I cannot refuse . . so this is my poor
long letter (with kisses in the words), that was to have
been ! But on Monday, dearest, dearest, I shall see you ?
All thanks for your letter . . I dare write no more, as there
must be some difference in my way of writing to you from
other ways.
Bless you, ever, as I am ever yours —
R.
