We haven't much of a house, but we have plenty of room for
you. As for the house, it was a matter of course, whether
good or bad. It goes with the kennels, and I should as
little think of having a choice as though I were one of
the horses. We have very good stables, and such a stud! I
can't tell you how many there are. In October it seems as
though their name were legion. In March there is never
anything for any body to ride on. I generally find then
that mine are taken for the whips. Do come and take
advantage of the flush. I can't tell you how glad we shall
be to see you. Oswald ought to have written himself, but
he says--; I won't tell you what he says. We shall take no
refusal. You can have nothing to do before you are wanted
at Tankerville.
I was so sorry to hear of your great loss. I hardly know
whether to mention it or to be silent in writing. If you
were here of course I should speak of her. And I would
rather renew your grief for a time than allow you to think
that I am indifferent.
