She has received his letter and the cheque for £7 10s 'for the Vidal', about the sale of which and the price she is 'very much pleased'.

I am really not far off, in Wimbledon, but have had bronchitis all the winter, & can't get out much yet.' She is 'very glad all are well at No 350 [Bumpus's premises in Oxford Street], a place much beloved by me, & I do hope that the whirligig of time will very soon bring a whirligig of prosperity to it, so great that you will be even more cheery than ever - if that is possible!'
