Scope and content

Beaton's letter was kind, but she looks like an old horse and is resigned to it. Has had six doctors in all. Is improving and not losing so much weight. Mentions news about the Duke of K. Looks forward to more news when Diana returns from London. Hibert has started his lectures at Camberly. Juliet has been to visit. Diana is being good to her but she feels homesick, but realises that she could not stand sooty air just yet.
