My dear Susan Tell Mamma that I have so much to do this evening I cannot go up to dinner. If I can I will run up before 10 o'clock to see you. The table, dressing table etc is ordered. The gloves I send up to see if they will suit also handkerchiefs for you to hem at the Hutt. If the box will suit you may keep it as I have plenty besides. Hem one pocket handkerchief for me like a good girl. Your affectionate Donald McLean The tea, coffee pot and knives I will send up for you to look at tonight. The knives Moore has are not very good but you need not keep them if you wish me to get better. Mr Williamson has just gone down to Langs for our dinner as we have writing to do.
