January 8th, 1890
Dear Mr. Fletcher,
Thank you for your sympathies. We are faring well despite the obvious circumstances, though my eldest would beg to differ. He idolized his father and is devastated by the loss, Just as any boy would be in such a position.
Your mother has always been so kind to me. I'll have to invite her over one day soon. As for a visit with your dog, I think Sebastian and Adelaide would be delighted. I must confess I've been considering adopting a puppy for them. Perhaps a visit can be their silent trial. When would you be available?
Sincerely,
Mrs. Maggie Goyle
