Dear Daddy,
I hope you are quite well. I am. We went to church this morning, and for a walk his afternoon. It has been miles too hot for me today. Please thank Nanny for her letter. I think that Moses is sweet in that photograph. I am afraid that [deleted] you [/deleted] my [inserted] writing [/inserted] [deleted] better [/deleted] is rather untidy. I am longing to come home. We begin bathing very soon. I am afraid that I must end now as I am writing to Elizabeth. [word deleted] Give my love to everybody,
much love from,
David
