I am so pleased you have heard from Lily. I wish you could induce her to come over, because she must be very worried. I am certain you know what it is, Dear to be upset. Give my love to Mother and everyone I know. A kiss for the children xxx and accept the same yourself. Your Loving Brother Billy."</p>
