User-Contributed Transcription (204 Ryde. I was confounded! Sister has a most nasty & disagreeable habit of enquiring when even I get a letter, as to who it is from; she had caught sight of the stamps on this one, & of course she gave me no peace until she had read it. - The letter was from Mr Little sure enough; his excuse for writing, was to thank me for letting him take Adelaide Proctor, which was entirely unnecessary, & to announce what his Mother had already told me, that he was "going to America with the ship, but coming back immediately on a six months leave, when he "hoped to have the pleasure of seeing me, & obtain my pardon for his temerity in writing." - Well of course Sister was perfectly furious; she stormed away for about an hour, in a high tragedy style.
