Dear Estai [Jane Wolfe],

 

93.

 

So nice of you to write—That is to-day: I'm looking for something big and good to break.

     

If it doesn't Lord help us!

     

Thanks for "Show Boat". Not too bad. Made me think of you all the time, somehow. All I can send in return is a new kind of swordpuzzle. I found it really interesting to work out—not knowing more than about two of the dates, I made a sort of geometrical solution.

     

Later. It is a perfectly lovely day—clear, cold, sunlight. It's hell not to be able to be in the forest.

     

It has at last raised my spirits—Also I have been able to get myself stockings and a waistcoat—the old were falling off me—and to pay my hotel bill. Another £10, and I could get to the family! Ninette [Ninette Shumway] must have a long rest. The hindrance well. But cash is sorely needed.

     

I hope your affairs are looking up. Your letter sounds as if you were whole lots better in health. The rest will follow. Keep me posted.

 

93     93/93.

 

Fraternally,

 

666.
