95 Sloane Street Wed. Dearest Mother. Nothing will give me greater pleasure than to send you furs - I quite agree with you that you ought to have a stylish boa! It's only right. I know of no better place than the Inter. Fur Co. The boa M [Maurice] and I gave Moll cost £60 and the one you gave F. [Florence[?]] if I remember about £40. I shall take those two prices as my limit on either hand and see what can be done tomorrow. I had a very comfy journey and arrived at 4. It's disgusting here, but I have to see about one or two things which will take up tomorrow and on Friday I shall go to the Lyalls. I was really very sorry to leave the Blumenthals - it was such a delicious perfect climate and country and they were so affectionate and kind. When I went away even Monsieur B. fell on my neck and embraced me!
Will you please give the enclosed to Maurice whom it concerns as well as me. I feel now a great desire to come home and I rather wish I were coming straight north tomorrow. My address from Friday to Monday is Swinford Old Manor, Ashford, Kent. Ever your affectionate daughter Gertrude
