Dr Beatty declares Cecil has
German measles. This makes
all things very complicated. Sent
wire to Beatrice not to cross.
I hope to make some arrangement
for her holidays without crossing
the water. Perhaps Aunt Jennie
may be able to have her with her
for a few days.
Am asking Uncle Tom if he
will take Jack for the holidays
as I am most anxious he will
not miss the term at Downside
