Sent from Maria Sharpe Pearson

Description:
‘Dearest Karl,
...
A hot sultry day here. Megan has been very restless today & is now established in a den of her own in Sigrid’s room where she seems very happy to be. I go out to town with Mrs [illeg.] while Helga is on watch. Will you say, if puppies come, how many days she should be on with a [sic] g & oats before going on to a more ordinary food? I forget details so.
She seemed in great pain & discomfort before breakfast but since has quietened down perhaps Bister[?] & Mrs Spencer fussed her. She snapped so much at the farmer[?] that he has been content to leave her to Helga & me. Helga the favourite. I do hope things will come off right & that she won’t get exhausted . She takes a little light food if fed, bit is also sick occasionally, seems hungry.
We shall perhaps hear from you when you come Friday. Shan’t any way be far away now. Joyce Helga & I lunched near Leith Hill Tower yesterday. Joyce came back to tea, after a walk with H. [illeg.] is downstairs again. You will have lost both children now.
Your loving wife,
M.S.P.
No word from Donald yet.’
