Correspondence from William Wynn Westcott to Annie Horniman
[Undated: circa December 1896]
Dear F.E.R.,
I am horrified at your letter and enclosures now to hand—and have no comfort to give.
There is no doubt that he is more high up than I am, and I have no power to prevent any action of his-and any protest which I make would only risk my own degradation in office, which I do not think would for the general good of the Order. You have my utmost sympathy with you in your troubles, and all my friends will join me in wishing you all good. The clouds may drift away some day and bring you a bright good morning.
