Pièce 287 - Letter from Noémi Renan to Lady Frazer

Paris, 16 rue Chaptal - Is sorry to hear she has been suffering from hives; reflects on their friendship; she really liked Cambridge herself; thinks that [Albert] Houtin, who intimidated her at first, must have suffered a lot and mentions a gift of a book which must have pleased him; is happy to do Lilly a favour; her family is well and she celebrated her oldest daughter's birthday [Henriette d'Allonnes], but her heart is forever with the ones so far away from everything they once loved.
