Scope and content
47 Lauriston Place, Edinburgh. - Don has taken a furnished house in Napier Road 'almost opposite our aunts!'. They hope to move in next week, and Grettie has found a 'sweet old maid' to help in the home. Don is well; his fifth Beethoven recital was 'splendid'; she missed the last one when unwell but is better now. Kind of Bessie to remember the 'bed & the bottle': her sister arranged the first, and Don the second. The [Reid] Orchestra is going splendidly, and the 'German trouble' [see 6/163] has died down.
