Friday 5 P.M. My dear I hope you got the note I wrote on Tuesday, immediately after Agnew left: he promised to put things in writing and this morning I have the enclosed, and give to Geòrgie please to keep with my love, but I fancy he has sent you something similar direct - Yes he was very nice as a man possibly could be and I am so thankful to have that setded and I think prudently altho my expectations of yr future are very large - carpe diem is a wise old saying and we are doing the right thing I am sure: I hope he will make a large gain and you have only now to let him be your friendly helper - he will be proud and pleased to be so and in many ways [and so] nice to think of - and now if God spares me for a wee bit I hope it may be to settle the other things too and then you know you may look on yrself as a retired picture dealer future be somewhat free of anxiety, but I want to see you first before at all approaching Balfour.1 dear for the little mystery that came by post - it is very sweet and means a great many things that out by degrees - and now my dear stop. Don't send me any more gallery pictures - my walls only whenever you write me a note - however wee a scrap, dab a bit of colour in the corner signature like a forlorn monkey. I've fifty things to say but I'm too tired and don't know what they are. So goodbye. Yrs aiftly W.G. I'll write to you tomorrow. He keeps much the same. We are trying to get more nourishment in.
