My dear Muriel,

Just the promised

card! It is one of my 

favorite pictures. I have

been busy to day so far (it

is now 12 noon) + have had 

one bit of good news - will tell 

you to night. Just had an 

interruption: - knock at door - 

"Come in" - dirty man in

corduroys enters - "complements

of the season to you, sir" - doubtful

pause on both sides - "Dustman,

sir,-" enlightenment - transfer of 

sundry coffers - "thank you, sir, 

Happy New Year". Well, Lassie

of mine, I wish I had you 

just now - especially when I look on

the other side. I won't say more - 

you understand, don't you? until 

4.30 p.m., All  my love, 

Your,

Stanley.
