Scope and content

93, High Street, Knaphill, Woking. - Thanks Bessie; a comfort to know [Dr Bluth's] name and address; will "wait to hear what he has to say" then will want a 'real Aussprache [discussion]' with him; behind all Donald [Tovey]'s illnesses 'lies a most tragical story', known by the two doctors at Bath who were so anxious about him. The climate at Hedenham is an 'added evil'; she therefore offered them 'this dry little house by Bisley common' for as long as they liked; she could have stayed on in Edinburgh and Donald's 'delightful nephew' Duncan Tovey lives nearby. Instead it was decided to go to Hedenham. The Hedenham doctor [Corbett] who came to see her here struck her ' so unfavourably' that she told him she had 'no confidence in him'. If Dr Bluth comes to see her, as she hopes, asks if she could offer him a fee.
