My dear Nellie -

I have not been allowed out yet - and this tiresome cough still goes on -

However perhaps soon I may come and pay my call of ceremony, [p. 2] and meanwhile with best compliments to your Mother[4], & again many thanks to you, I send you enclosed cards for another private View -

If I get another I will send it to Mrs. Johnston[5] -

Always

J McN W

I hope Mrs. Sophie[6] has sent you better news of herself -
