My dear Betty,
I am very sorry to hear your cough is no better & am very glad you have seen the doctor & hope he will soon do you good, I suppose you have to keep your bed entirely & that is a good thing as you are in less danger of draughts there. If you don’t get much better soon, it may be better for you to come home as it is so near the holidays, only of course you would have to wait till the Doctor allowed you to travel.
My GFS girls are here & Ethel has gone in for a few minutes so that I can finish this before post. Ethel & May have just had the first Baby practice, they were rather stolid & one collapsed into tears towards the end.
Brailsford was very pleased to get your letter today.
Do take great care of yourself dear, & I hope you will soon be better. Let me have a post-card soon.
Much love from
Your loving mother
Eugénie N Sladden
