MS Cheltenham Ladies College 5351 Gor/2

Dear Miss Beale
Indeed your letter was all right, I am sorry you had an alarm about it. I believe one failure in these days in training is that the very late dinners prevent the long family evenings of reading, work and music sometimes dull, but often educational. As to books, minute studies of character either weary children or make them self conscious. What their elders like they care little for. So Aunt Judy fails and Little Folks flourishes¹

yours sincerely
