Artefact
Geoffrey Griffiths assures Ida Carroll that he loves her even though he can't visit in the evenings/nights as he's working. She has had a "great indisposition" but we're not told what its nature is.
She's thinking about getting glasses, "horn-rims sound the very thing" he agrees. With the railway timetables now in small print he thinks he might do the same! (Possible wartime paper rationing could account for the smaller prints).
He urges her to take her time travelling and not to push herself.
He's enclosed something for her sister Elsa but it seemed to have made its way to her as it was not with the letter.
