Dear Mrs. Pennell -
Forgive my not writing my sympathies! -
All these emotions go to make your life a joyous one - and thats all right!
[p. 2] If you think that it will not be too great a strain upon you after last night - and that Augustine[4] will stand it - I shall venture this evening, as near 7.30. as possible -
& meanwhile kindest messages to you both
