My dear Singer,
I have kept yours of 13th ultimo just to give you a few lines of love for your
great motherly affection. Your wire was good as from a philosopher, who could
put her philosophy to practice at the right moment. Your letter brings out a
mother's affection at its best. I do not know whether to love you best as a
poetess, philosopher or mother? Tell me.
Love.
Spinner
