  • Scope and Content
    Intimation of a little one is the first the writer has had. Sends congratulations and hopes that all will go well. Would like to send something suitable for the occasion, but does not know what Gertrude has already provided, so offers £3 to get something either for Gertrude's own comfort or for the baby. The lamented the death of the Bishop of Ely [James Russell Woodford] is felt be all who knew him.
