My Darling Wife,

You will I know expect the usual letter so I must take care you are not disappointed.  I have been wondering how you have got on to-day with baby I do hope he has been a good boy for I am afraid my little wife must be tired after her sleepless night.

There is not so much snow here as at Chipping Norton but it is quite cold.

To-morrow I shall run down to Badsey to see how things are getting on, I hope to find the papering done.  With much love and a kiss for baby Jack.

I am ever
Your affectionate husband

Julius Sladden

My darling must try and be cheerful and happy, for her husband is well contented if he can feel that his dear Eugénie is so.
