1 item.

Hedenham Lodge, Bungay, Suffolk. - Thanks Bessie for her letter; she would very much like to have her here, but must say no for the moment. She had to let Miss Weisse know [about Donald's illness] on Friday but has managed so far for her not to come; she will 'of course' soon and a room must be kept for her. They have a very good nurse from the London Hospital who takes night duty and stays into the morning to settle Donald. He has no pain, just excessive weakness, and is very patient; has made more progress in the last two days than she dared hope. It will be a long time before he can do anything, and she knows she will have to call on the Trevelyans to 'come and cheer' them. With the nurse, and Miss Morah [?], and Clara having to sleep in John's room, the house will be quite full when Miss Weisse comes.
