that I never had a chance to say farewell to Florence, however I was lucky to see as much of her as I did. She was looking ever so much better and seemed very keen to get away from Malta and back to work.

I mean to have two or three weeks dashed[?] good holiday x then for France; If I get another pellet[?] in me about May
