Dearest Mother, {above right: "Dec.23rd"}

Have been so
busy as many
people have dropped
in & also I had
a lot of last minute
shopping to do.
But will try to
write you tomorrow.
Have left most
everything until
then I'm afraid.
It's mild again
which makes it
nice for the
holidays.
lots of love Catharine
