My dear Mr Colenutt
The decorations are admirable. I wish you could see, as I did yesterday, the poor people looking at them.
Have you seem the Pall Mall Gazette of Nov: 26 and Dec. 19. The first contains letters of Mrs Carlyle’s (1) and the second a commentary by Maccall stating the actual facts. It is worth a whole bushel of criticism on Mrs C.
Best love to father and the children. I am very glad father is better. I wish he would let Rick and Chad into the ham(?) mystery.
I do not know George’s address. He promised he would come here if Jack (2) paid us a visit – Jack will come be with us next Sunday for a very brief space. Please enclose this note to George. Love to
yourself.
Maud is here.
Ever yours
W.Hale White
1) Carlyle, Jane Baillie Welsh (1801–1866), letter writer, Carlyle’s wife.
