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
