Dec. 22nd 1859. My dear D When I saw Mrs Disraeli a few days ago in London she told me of your sister's serious illness but I was truly shocked to see in the papers how suddenly it was brought to a fatal end. The first great sorrow I knew was the death of a sister, and I can therefore feel with and for you in your present grief. |
That time may reconcile you to the loss you have sustained, and that in preparation for the coming Season you may find immediate distraction is, my dear D, the earnest wish of Yours ever truly |
