Dear Beverley:
I am impressed! A special private duty male nurse is on hand at home‑‑why, he is a man of many parts!
It is wonderful that you are home, and maybe even by now, "out and about," even packing plaster. In view of the recent surgical consumerism in Chez Croskery, you should have sent out the eligible daughter to bring back an orthopedist!
In response to your inquiry about the progress about the house, I attach a few pictures. This roll includes a few I would be quite proud of‑‑‑No, not that half, which may be of greater interest to Robert, on geese and hogs! I mean the front and back pictures on the roll.
The first of them relate to twin grandsons,

"19'er" R E Lee) to tour Derwood in its current status with all the
interior work being completed in the next weeks. They were the last to visit in July (a photo

I had sent Robert a package of books, and then a later cover letter for his interest (attached) explaining where I would be and what I would be doing (with some further details attached) as I leave now with some hand‑picked student "veterans" to operate in Somaliland and Ethiopia.
To avoid any mis‑communication, from my impending absence, I may make a "CC" to each of you in extending my best wishes and better hopes (above.)
I
am leaving with very satisfying reports on recovery from both of the indomitable Croskery women

cryptic note was attached to my "hard copy" letter to Robert, along
with a fistful of essay enclosures. The

Just after Virginia had mentioned a long held ambition to spend some time in France, as I once had, I received his note hoping to see me, with the almost aside comment that he has widely metastatic disease, and wanted to send a note of appreciation as he entered the final phases of prostatic cancer.
