are up -- I like the people here very much, as they are all so kind and sociable, and free, as a rule, from the cliques etc. wh. exist in most small places -- This however is growing at a wonderful rate, New buildings are going up in all directions, and the flat will soon be quite built over -- Hoping this will find you enjoying good health, and with thanks for the kind interest you have hitherto taken in me, wh. I will do my best to deserve also in the future. I remain Yours very sincerely John Hall Junr.
