My dear old Alice,

I have sent another parcel this morning to mother (2nd), hope they both arrive safely. No doubt they will take longer than this letter. I sent the third Kimono, so you must agree amongst yourselves which to have. I bought a pink one for myself. I've had them & the shawl & mummy beads some time – thinking I would bring them home with me, on transport. If I get a day in Cairo before we leave I shall get some brass ware. It is very hard to get anything for little Eddy, hope he likes the Egyptian Dagger. It is the kind used at Kartoum. A mail closes in the morning so thought I would just send you a few lines. I wrote to mother two days
