My dear Joan,
I was awfully upset to hear the news tonight. I opened your Mothers letter although it wasn’t addressed to me. You see they have gone to Chesterfield for the weekend and wont be back until Tuesday. Something told me it was important so I opened it.
I do want to assure you of my deepest sympathy and I am sure Maurice would want to join me. We will all be thinking of you during the time
[page break]
you are waiting for further news and I hope with all my heart that it will be good news.
They will seem very long days I know but be patient, dear, and don’t lose heart.
Father will be writing to you when he returns, in the meantime I send
My love
Eileen.
