MY DEAR MISS BOYLE,

Your remembrance at such a time--not thrown away upon me, trust me--is a

sufficient assurance that you know how truly I feel towards you, and

with what an earnest sympathy I must think of you now.

God be with you! There is indeed nothing terrible in such a death,

nothing that we would undo, nothing that we may remember otherwise than

with deeply thankful, though with softened hearts.

Kate sends you her affectionate love. I enclose a note from Georgina.

Pray give my kindest remembrances to your brother Cavendish, and believe

me now and ever,

Faithfully your Friend.

[Sidenote: Mr. Eeles.]
