General note

Glad to hear that "you are all well". The Indian mutiny will lead us into expense. Olivia's first cousin, Drew, is at Delhi. Eighty marriageable girls sent to the Cape recently. Towns at home are shabby, no railways being built. William will be detained in India. John died in Bombay. (10 pages. Damaged)
