Autograph letter signed : Verona, to Thomas Richmond, [year unknown] June 16.

Saying he is sorry to hear he is ill but telling him not to pay attention to what the doctors tell him; saying it is oppressively hot; saying that his maid, Kate, has been ill and that they are all "down, more or less;" saying that "my form of unusual 'down-ness' consisting chiefly in the painful sense of my own supreme wisdom, and the impossibility of making myself generally understood--or useful--owing to that preeminent disadvantage;" talking of the activities of Constance, her mother, and his cousin Joan [Agnew}; saying that "Joanie is not well at all."
