I give you my word of honour on my typewriter-my most precious possession- that I will never drink more than both bottles full of whisky per diem, so long as I am sober enough to count them. So there!!!!! If I get the counting wrong then my Aimée must apply a touch of the salt out of her loveliest glass things, et V’la! Robin’s himself again. You are rather dears, aren’t you? I’m not much of a judge, no experience of life & luv & things that count. But I’m scrattin’ along towards the lost dog’s home as merry as a grig, whatever a grig is. I believe Erb is coming here to tea. If so he can bring this to you and so miss the suffraggetteeesssese-don’t know how to spell ‘em. All Fleet St. is in a state of fever about them. We have notices to come down to the office for orders tomorrow as a great raid of the ‘Ladies’ is expected at all newspaper offices tomorrow or Xmas Day. Sweet dears, aren’t they! The pleasure they give to thousands of poor devils by robbing them of Xmas presents is incalculable, I don’t fink! Goodbye my dear. May the blessings&c, (vide supra!). The most hearty thanksto you & Gorbless you for a good’un, & him for second best!...”, 1 side folio with original autograph envelope, 33 Oakley Street, Chelsea, 23rd December no year,
