us that you are not to buy Wairarapa and that you will be in sooner than you expected when you left. I hope it is so. When you write let us know when we may expect to see you. I must now conclude my letter which will I fear be very uninteresting but I have got nothing more to tell which you would wish to hear. Mama sends her kindest regards and believe me my dearest McLean Ever yours affectionately Susan D Strang
