Dear Mary

Thank you for your letter of the 28th with enclosures. I must try not to let my own present unhappiness harden my heart against the woes of others! You too are going through a dreadful time. Ah well, it will not last forever. There will come a day for all of us when “it is finished”. God help us all.

Yours sincerely

Dear Mary

I’ve got such an attack of rheumatism in my right arm I can hardly write. I have married a lady suffering from cancer. I think she will weather it this time: after that, life under the sword of Damocles. Very little chance (not exactly none) of a permanent escape. I acquire two schoolboy stepsons. My brother and I have been coping with them for their Christmas holidays. Nice boys, but gruelling work for 2 old bachelors! I’m dead tired now.

Yours very sincerely

Jack Lewis
