We received your letter and are so pleased to hear that you and Viola are getting on all right. I was worried at times, I can hardly tell you how; Tilly is better under Emma's care. She was perhaps more lonely, then anything else, for Myra is too grown up for her, and Claras being so close to the house, she was tempted. We took a trip to Hildesheim yesterday, notice, the houses how tall they are built. We climbed up in the tallest old church steeple, to get a view of the surrounding country it was pretty hard, over 200 steps.
With much love from Father and Mother
