I have tried to arrange things so that they will cause the minimum of trouble to those who have to tidy up after me. I know what a bad time you have been having, my dear, and I have thought of you often with a heavy heart. But my many years of experience have shown me that, at some time or another & in out [?] or another, fate exacts of us all our maximum of suffering; and the only good that seems to come of it is that in fighting our way through the Dark Forest, we get, or ought to get a certain discipline; that helps later to bear the next blows more philosophically and also to understand others and pity them. I do hope you'll be able to get abroad next year. New surroundings are the best cure for an old ache. Best Love [?] Edith Can you give me any news about those tiresome old books? Tom Newbold announced their sale to me months ago, but the Chase National Bank, which looks after my interests had sent me no papers to sign as yet, or any kind of information" HBS 69345. $2,750.
