She thanks Maw for the journals, though she had read about ‘it’ before with great interest; she hopes he received the plant which they sent off on Wednesday; he is always welcome to anything they have; they have had a great sorrow in the sudden death of her brother [Frederick Walpole], so sudden that she ‘read it in the newspaper’; they go to London on the 26th; she will be pleased to show Maw her mantelpiece with his pretty presents. Dated 22 Apr, no year [1876 added in a different hand; Frederick Walpole died on 1 Apr 1876]
