P. S.

DEAR NISHIDA,--I waited over last night to hunt up the

quotation for you; and during the night my child was born. A very strong

boy,--dark eyes and hair; he has some of my features, some of Setsu's.

Setsu is well enough to send kind words, and to tell you what I was

intending to tell you myself,--how delighted we have all been to hear of

your good health this year.

I intended to write more, but I am too tired for the moment,--as I have

not been in bed for more than 24 hours. So for a little, good-bye,--best

regards to you and yours always from
