He sends a cheque for bullock train hire and will settle other expenses around the first of April. He is in country 'to break your heart over', all jungle and the undulation so flat. It is so hot that wild animals take refuge in streams. Mrs Abbott has died, he has heard. He notes a hitch with Potts' certificate. |
