Scope and content
2 St. Margaret's Road, Edinburgh. - Don is well and busy with University work again; the first meeting of the revived Kirkhope Choir takes place tonight under his direction and Mr Kirkhope will be there to introduce him; it is a 'great trial' to her to be absent. They like their house very much: it is 'countrified' and sunny. She is very grateful to be home: Don had a 'dreadful time of it' and she would have been even more anxious if he had not been staying with her Aunt Jane [Anderson]. Her father is very well: by a 'big effort' she went to see him yesterday, for the first time in three months, though he had been to see her. It was 'truly terrible' in the nursing home.
