Nov November 2 nd 1875 Dear Mr. Cockerell

I shall fill up your cheque for £1.13.4 – for indeed I should never think of being paid for the few accidental dinners the child has hitherto had – I only wish I could get her to eat more! – but still she is improving – & she generally enjoys her tea. You will have got my note & must think it over & let me know. –

Believe – if I can in any way lighten your burden & your wife’s – I am glad –

Very truly yours DMCraik. –
