My dearest Henrietta

I am very sorry that I could not write before, but Seney will not give me any paper—I just got a boy to give this sheet to me. I am much obliged to you for that letter you sent me the other day. I expect to get put up every day for I am generally first. Bros eye is quite well now, only it is a little black but that is nothing. There is no news I can tell for there has been no flogging for a long time, tell Stormy he must come to be flogged, or Ba, as she wants to come so much. They are going to let 67 Baker Str so I suppose Granny will try to get it again when she comes from Hastings. You must excuse me writing a long letter for I must write to Mama to day. Best love to all your

ever affectionate Sam.
