My dearest Husband,
I was pleased to receive your letter this morning & will write you a few lines before we start for Richmond where Fanny & I are going to lunch.
We also had snow yesterday morning which turned to rain later, but it is fine again this morning. I am going to Holloway College in time for lunch on Saturday. I am not sure yet what train I shall travel by on Monday, but will let you know; I may stop at Oxford on my way if I leave Egham early enough. I shall have to go to Birmingham by the 9 o’clock train on Tuesday as the meeting is at 11.30; I will write to Mrs Knipe today & arrange about meeting her. Fanny wants you to send her some more claret, I am sending the order to the office on a post-card.
Yesterday afternoon we went to a Lent working party at the house of Lily’s mother-in-law; Mrs Harper seems pleasant, but I can imagine that Lily may find herself rather too near occasionally. Gwen & Charlie dined here last night, the latter had been to a big Free Mason dinner on Tuesday & Frank also came up from Farringdon for it. May is home again & seems to have enjoyed her stay at Frank’s.
Give my love to Ethel, George & Juliet & with much to yourself, dear
Believe me always
Your loving wife
Eugénie N Sladden
