the subject again when I am present -

and you have not decided, I will tell you!

I think a change with Mr T. for a while

would benefit me very much – can you

not recommend such a change to the

authorities?  If so I will promise never

to excite your curiosity again without gratify-

-ing it – but this "Sub-Rosa" else

my [?] will be [endangered?] in future

[.......?] in proximity to [him?]

[I will?] try and do justice to the charming

& beautiful letter last received soon but

far short of it.

 

                   In haste Yours truly

                                J.S.C.

 

Miss E R. Braxton

Ingleside
