I had wanted to fill this little book with drawings for you,
1 but Theo is leaving today,
2 so I don’t have any more time. You’ll just have to have it the way it is, and when I come back next year I’ll make a new one. Next Monday
3 I’m going back to London with my sister
Anna, to the house I’ve drawn for you,
4 and then I’ll be travelling on the little steamboat that I’ve
1v:2 drawn here.
5 Well,
Betsy, adieu, until next year.
