My dear Henry
Rose <1> is proceeding so nicely that I almost expect Mr Kenrick <2> will not visit her after today – but he has – He has just been & says he will look in again in a few days to see her quite well. – If tomorrow should be as fine as today she may go out – I thought you would like to have a line just to be assured of her convalescence – Ela <3> continues well – I suppose you will write again before you come – or must I expect you on Tuesday at any rate? – It is post time so I must not add anything more –
