From a Butler to the homesick son of the family, 1911

Oh Tall and merciful Mr Osbert,
     I hope you have not erred nor stayed from your way like a lost lamb. Nor has followed the devices and desires of your own heart (where chocolate and fruit is concerned) nor offended against the laws of the Railway company, nor has done those things which you ought not to have done or left undone those things which you ought to have done but hope you arrived at Snettisham in peace and I trust your stay at Ken Hill will be joyful and when you depart that place you may safely come to your home and eternal joy and lemonade.
     Trusting you are in the pink of condition, Sir George is A1.
                                                                             Yours obediently,
                                                                                               Henry Moat
