Autograph Letter Signed with initials, to ‘My dear Viper’, Lady Colebrooke
regretting that he is “afraid this letter will bring another blow to you... I have received the enclosed telegram this evening about Miss Cohen, my wife’s last relation on the mother’s side, who has been a sort of mother to my children. She has long been in precarious health and I am afraid this is the end. If it is I cannot of course come to yours tomorrow. If she is dying I shall have to go to London tonight... I have telegraphed as a last chance to Sir Thomas Barlow to ask exactly how the case stands, and shall act accordingly. I cannot tell you how sorry I am to add to your embarrassments or how much worse[?] I shall be if I am unable to get to you at all...”, 3 sides 8vo., with original autograph envelope, Dalmeny House, Edinburgh headed paper, 14th October
