MIMI may rely on secrecy; that is the only addition that can be made to
the intimation already given, and which is rightly supposed to have been
intended for the person who now writes more distinctly under the above
signature.
856.--_Friday, July 31, 1857._
MIMI.--You can trust your correspondent, M. H. K. All is sincere, and
well meant, and the most implicit confidence may be relied upon.
857.--_Saturday, August 1, 1857._
KALENDS.--Bird has flown. 400 miles east of August, 1854. Thanks.
858.--_Monday, August 3, 1857._
A. T.--We each forgive and love you, but entreat you to COME HOME. No T;
no D. All well. E. has broken it. Our prayers are for you.
859.--_Tuesday, August 4, 5, 6, 1857._
NIDDRIE, 13th; so come on 12th. Tell E. J.
860.--_Wednesday, August 12, 1857._
NIDDRIE, on 13th.--Do not come. There is foul play somewhere. A letter
will explain.--J. S.
861.--_Thursday, August 13, 1857._
M. D.--ACCEPT my sincere but sorrowful THANKS. No. 19 if possible, but
very doubtful. Be cautious, you are watched. A fellow-sufferer.
862.--_Friday, August 14, 15, 1857._
N. M.--August 12.--The second Saturday has passed.
863.--_Saturday, August 15, 1857._
M. H. K.--Unalterable, unchangeable. We must act with firmness; our
affairs will then be settled in a way most conducive to our own
interests, and everything arranged according to our wishes by the
appointed time.--Ever yours, Mimi, August 13, 1857.
864.--_Tuesday, August 18, 1857._
CUMMING to PET.--Je ne puis plus supporter cette existence. Viens avec
moi je t’en prie-je suis si malheureux. Il faut m’écrire. The old
address. God bless you.
865.--_Thursday, August 20, 1857._
MIMI.--Will you kindly explain yours of the 13th? Have you received my
two letters? Yours ever, M. H. K.
866.--_Thursday, August 20, 1857._
CUMMING to PET.--Je vous importune trop. Vous voudriez me voir partir
loin de vous. Votre avenir sera plus heureux que le mien; moi, malade
d’esprit et de corps, seul au monde, que ferai-je? Pourquoi m’avez-vous
parlé de ces lettres? N’avez-vous plus de confiance en moi? Je n’ai pas
encore été voir notre père, parceque j’ai été trop souffrant. Vous aurez
de mes nouvelles mardi prochain. Adieu, mon épouse chérie. Soyez bonne.
Je vois aime trop maintenant pour vous haïr plus tard. Je ne vous
abandonnerai jamais.--Infelice.
867.--_Monday, August 24, 1857._
M. H. K.--I have nothing to explain. Our wishes to settle our affairs
are the same. If you would Write, and communicate everything, there
would be no difficulty. You know my address. I wish my home in the
country was nearer yours; but if you are ready to arrange our business I
hope shortly to see you. Ever yours, Mimi, August 21, 1857.
868.--_Tuesday, August 25, 1857._
