Scope and content
The Shiffolds, Holmbury St. Mary, Dorking. - Everything so far has gone well, and Bessie is 'doing very well' [after the birth of their son]. The doctor came this morning, and was 'quite satisfied both with her and the child'. Thanks her for the telegram, which came this morning, and also the letter; hopes his father is 'going on well'. Unfortunate that the weather has been so bad: it does not matter to them much, but will prevent his father getting out. They will send [announcements of the birth] to the Times and Morning Post tomorrow, and Bessie would also like to send one to the Dorking and Leatherhead Advertiser for the neighbours' sake.
Will write again soon; will have 'finished writing to all the various people' by tonight. The child 'seems quite vigorous, and cries a great deal, and loudly, which is a good sign'.
Adds a postscript saying that for the present his friend [Stanley] Makower has 'got help elsewhere', but that if he 'does not come to some arrangement', Robert may 'have to help him later on'.
