I do especially when I have a troublesome pet of my own now to look after. Now my own pet I have written you a long hurried letter. May the Almighty bless you. Goodnight and believe me ever to be your own affectionate husband Donald McLean I must add hundreds of fond and affectionate kisses. Be a good girl. God bless you and may you ever continue to be the same kind dutiful and affectionate wife that you now are is the earnest hope of your own Donald. Our usual luck seems to attend us in writing or having frequent opportunities to write. I may perhaps send you another note by Lord Cecil tomorrow if I have time. Good night dearest Douglas. Be a good pet.
