LONDON, Sept. 3, 1895.
Dearest Mrs. Young:
Your letter has been before my eyes many times...
Keep up your courage and your faith in women and in the _old flag_. I
came across it the first time after I arrived, in a moment of extreme
despondency. It did me a world of good... In three weeks, if all goes
well, I shall see you. We sail for New York on the 12th of this month.
Affectionately,
J.C.C.
