Dear Mary,
I received your letter two days ago. So you are back to work again well you were lucky at anyrate. You must have had terrible rain when it did such damage as that. Was there any damage done at Ardcharnich? It will give more work to father. How is nurse Davidson & Jean & all the rest. Things are as usual here nothing new going on. Write soon with all news.
Love from Dodo
