95 Sloane Street Friday. Dearest Mother. I have continued the treatment today and I am rather better in consequence. I had a pleasant little stream of visitors in the afternoon. First Amy, then the Stanleys, then Bernard Spring Rice who stayed a long time and who is rather nice. Lady Susan has asked me for some of my Peking [Beijing] photographs for her book - yes! she has written a book. Would you mind sending me the films? You will find in the big chest of drawers in my sitting room, the first (or second) long draw on the right hand side full of packets of films, two of which are laBelled Peking or China, I forget which. Anyhow those are the ones I want. It wd be very kind of you if you wd send them to me - MaBell cd find them I don't doubt.
Robert's wages have not been paid - Sopley it seems advanced him a week. And we want some money for more logs for the hall. I hope you will come up on Monday, then we will all go to the Phipps' - at least I hope I shall be well by that time. I've put off all my engagements this week - rather sadly, but it was wise.

I am much interested about the Brotton meeting. I shd have liked to have heard Father's speech. We think it very outrageous you shd have had to go to the ball by yourself - but it's our fault. Lizzie must bring up Chin, if you don't mind. He can't be left at Redcar all by himself. He is wrongly fed - it makes him ill. Ever your affectionate daughter Gertrude
