It appears now that I must fork? out a passport or get  .......... birth-certificate, go to Manheim & obtain a passport from the consul there. If I try to get a birth-certificate I know from experience that will mean a delay of about a month, meanwhile fines will build up against me & all sorts of trouble will follow. I dont see why .... could not fill up that form, get it signed & present it yourself at the proper place and then forward the passport when you get it. You see what a mess has been made of it. If you dont manage that let me know & I'll write to Airth & (though they'll take weeks & weeks) & then get a pass in Manheim meanwhile I am feeling abominably annoyed with these ........... & wish the consul would come & rat them up        Tom ...........................

Dr M.F.N., I didn't reach here until Thursday night so found the watch awaiting me all right. The guarantee hardly seems to cover a ? main-spring but I've sent it on in a hope it will come back repaired. They are all pretty well here but Aunt T. won't be coming this weekend. I have quite enough talking to do so I know you will excuse a letter this time. I will try & write from Cardiff where we go either some time on Monday (YMCA, is the address) or Tuesday first thing. we shall be there 3 weeks & as Xmas will be  near by that time. I gave the Timmes? a farewell call & was told to remember  you to them (!) Left Gloster at 7 & got to Bristol about 8, just time to look out into the City & see the decorations for  AJ Balfour's visit. I must look up the College again some day I suppose. \by bye now. much love to all A.                Expect to go to Cardiff monday afternoon
Hope I haven't sent Winnie one of the Abbey before, but its a job to remember them all. I get some from Walthamstow and return them pretty frequently. Sent one from here of Roman Baths yesterday and another today.
It's quite a business altogether do......now! Remember me to E.J.H &c.

escape. Heard from Will this morn. So glad to hear such a favourable account of Loo. It has just occurred to me have they a Xmas pudding at St. John's St. . if not will send them one. Can you send me a p.c. by return for if I sent one I ought to send it on Tuesday at latest but if they already have any I shan't do so. Kitty S. is coming for her Xmas holidays. Tuesday after Xmas. We should have liked Ethel also. only having the one room (spare) or rather bed cannot very well so perhaps she will be able to another time. Trust all are well much love from yrs. etc  ?ell?

Many thanks for yours, of this morning. Did a little bird tell you. I would like some of Cheddar not having  any & knowing it so well. I've been there 4 times.
It is a pretty view, & any you are able to get shall be delighted. How do you like this style of card? Mrs M. we have not seen so I think it was a stray one at least we hope so. My girl does her work well but is slow, & comes late of a morning, still she may improve. She is very clean & respectable & wears print dresses in the morning, & I think she tries to please. I shall give her a good trial. Poor Loo wants to get well to(o) soon still can understand. My greengrocer says grapes are too dear for him to sell now 2/6 lb, so must wait Love ???

Wil(l)? garden too where we shall be able to pick raspberries in a day or two. also plenty of flowers about a mile from the Castle though. - Enjoyed the short stay at Keynsham. Dora wants to know whether it is possible to get a holiday on the Quantocks somewhere. perhaps Aunt Eliza? mentioned it. Please send the paper tomorrow - we shall no doubt have a fine time if the weather will stop being like today very stormy. By Bye for a bit. I'll try & write next week. Love to all. Yours. A.

Do not fritter away your time as many young girls of my acquaintance do. Work hard, my young friend, and let me especially impress on you, the necessity to write frequently to me, your trusted fellow worker. If I could see you I would impress it on you very forcibly.

The organ at the back of the view is played twice a week by the city's leading Organists: for the amusement & edification of the Glasgow public. Don't you want to box my ears for being so presumptuous on Monday, I must have made myself "obnoxious." I rather likes it though.

Dear Mildred  You see by the address I am in London & I am enjoying myself very much. On Monday we went to the Tower of London. Tuesday the Chrystal Palace & yesterday (Thursday) we went & saw the procession at Whitehall. I saw beautifully the King & Queen looked rather pale I thought, but the Prince of Wales & Princess Mary looked lovely. I hope all the boarders are well & enjoyed the picnic. My love to all.   C.
