" MY DEAR CHARLES,
"We have indeed got a nice little sister, she is very fat, with dark eyes, like Susan's ; she is very good, but when she does cry it is real screaming. Papa and Tatty have the scarlatina ; we have not seen Tatty for a week, she has been in the schoolroom with Jemima, who is very kind to her indeed ; we hope to see her soon now. Poor Packy is dead, he died because he could live no longer, as all his liver was gone. Mamma went into the drawing-room yesterday for the first time. We have taken some very nice walks lately. Cousin Hornidge is staying with us. Emily is gone to Newton with aunt Bridges. I am obliged to you for your letter, and hope you will write to me again before the holidays. Cousin Hornidge, Susan and Henry desire their love to you, Miss Archer also desires her love.
" Believe me, dear Charles, your affectionate sister,
" LOUISA TORLESSE."
