7th of July, 1890

Urquart,

I convinced my mother to let me invite some friends to our family home in Southampton. It will be just us. And some governess and the servants of course, but that's as close as having a house to ourselves could get. You are invited to stay starting from the 10th of July. Do try to convince your uncle and aunt to let you come. I am terribly bored.

Yours,
