How are you, dear – a happy New year to you – & if we don’t meet before – we certainly shall on the 10 th .

If you are absolutely ill, tell me – & I’ll make a struggle-uggle at all chances to have a chat at your bedside – But I hope not so ill as that.

The Allania dynasty goes on well. —

Always – your sincere & aff ec affectionate — DMM
