"I send one line to thank you for my heavenly three weeks - I have never loved anything so much & the memory of it will be a possession for life. I am so very distressed to hear about Clemmie - & pray things may not turn out as long & wearisome as they sound... I have just been listening to McKenna’s vindication of himself - very good & courageous I thought... I feel terribly land-sick & long to be back with you all."
