Dear Sara
We returned from our flight into the country yesterday -- not without a sigh at parting with the pure air and the notes of the blackbirds for the usual canopy of smoke and the sound of cab wheels.
I shall leave you to choose the time you will give us. 40 I am not going out again, and our life will have its old routine: lunch at 'bd past 1, walk till 4, dinner at 5. You cannot come inconveniently, if you do not come before 'bd past one.
Ever your affectionate
M. E. L.
