Pana sajs ho must be mad, and I think no must be tho madedst man that ever lived. lam so glad that you have not been hurt, and so is papa and mamma. Good night and God bless you. Edith E. Elliott, March 2, 1882 Castle. Captain Edwards has received the Queen’s commands to thank Miss Edith E, Elliott for her kind little letter, and to express Her Majesty’s gratification upon reading it.
