30th July, 1890

My dear Elsie,

I write with news that you have no doubt been anticipating these last few weeks: I am delivered of a healthy little boy who I can only hope shares his father's compassion and honour. After some discussion, Mr. Keene and I have elected to name him Ewan Gideon; I am besotted not only with my son but with seeing how enchanted his father is. I have never doubted my husband to be a good father to the three children in our care, but seeing him with a child of his own blood makes me well up more than I should dare admit to anyone else!

Baby Ewan was born Monday, and I am recovering better than I did after my last pregnancy as I do not have the discovery of a family I forgot in a state of amnesia to contend with, and I had this babe safely in my own home, rather than in the local cemetery.

I should be delighted for you to visit when it is convenient for you.

Affectionately,

Odira

Dearest Loretta,

You are, once more, an aunt, for Ewan Gideon Keene was born yesterday afternoon. I shall write at greater length when I am a bit more recovered, but for now, he and I are both doing well. Please inform Mother and Father, for I know you shall convey the news better than I might in a letter.

Affectionately,

Odira

Sister,

I hope that my letter finds both yourself and Mr. Zabini in health, as well as the children—I have little doubt that the eldest Miss Riley is faring well in her first season with you to guide her, for I can think of no one better suited to help her navigate the waters of society.

I write with good news: I have delivered healthily a baby boy called Ewan Gideon Keene, and I must confess that I cannot quite put into words how enamored of him I have swiftly become in our three days together! I hope that his aunt and cousins might soon make his acquaintance.

Yours,

Odira

Dearest Odira,

I have indeed been anxiously awaiting this news for weeks and now it's here! I'm am so very happy for you and Mr. Keene and pleased that everything seemed to have gone much more smoothly this time than last. I can only imagine you are both over the moon about your new addition; your darling family must feel nearly complete now!

I will be eagerly looking forward to a visit when you are recovered enough to entertain.

Fondly,
Elsie
