Summary
Thanking her for a copy of "Credo;" saying "Thank you so very much for writing to me so kindly, and for sending this beautiful little 'Credo', a memorial I shall always cherish - for the short space this may remain to me. I am glad the little house is not to change hands, it contains so much of beauty and now of memories - and I look forward to seeing you there one day - not quite yet - for my grandchildren, I am happy to say want to come back to me for the Christmas holidays. I have been for 8 months alone, just keeping the home for them."
