Tell Mr. B it was alright coming when I was out, i won't forget him for it. Do hope you are keeping well. Will write you soon and give you what little news there is in quiet Wigton. Uncle has a cold - but the rest of the family are pretty well. So handsome Claude was defeated. Now if women only had had a vote he would have been better looked after accept she ?

Fond love to all.

Yours M.D.
