My dear Emily

I thank you for your kindness in remembering to write to me.
I made 1./2 last Saturday through selling garden stuff for the kitchen.
I had the pleasure of receiving a new florin as a birthday gift from
Mamma. Jepie Touge is coming to spend the afternoon with me. I hope
you are all well and with much love I remain

On reverse side of letter, in adult hand -

P.S. Johnny was so eager to fetch his little friend I had to help him with his letter to you. We expect to hear from you by return - you must at least write to us once a week. Lizzie Hotham is going again into service her Aunt has not left sufficient money to carry on her late business with advantage -- Ann Suddaby and Miss Thompson are well. Miss Lumly was in the other night.
