Scope and content

Received Beaton's letter on Monday. Hopes he is having a good time in New York but will be glad when he returns. The rooms did get damp with the pipe bursting. It would be better to have stoves as well as the boiler to warm the room. There was more trouble when snow drifted into the house. Her husband was on the spot and saved it from ruin. Her husband is disappointed as the plants have been destroyed in the frost. They are still busy on the garden and want to have it finished for Beaton when he comes home. Has asked Dorothy about the bedspread. Has only seen Miss Baba once since Beaton left. Hopes the weather will be nice as they have been snowed in. Hopes he will soon be back at Ashcombe. Thanks Beaton for the card.
