On the way out I was not able to fulfil the commission, because we passed Aden in the night.

But there will be plenty of time to do so on Tuesday, I am told.

This, however, is my difficulty: I cannot go unless I am better, and I'm afraid there is no such luck as that in store for me.

These attacks last a week, at least.
I wish my daughter, however, to go.

One of the ladies on board will go with her--Mrs.Callendar, I believe; and I am going to be so bold as to ask you to accompany them, if you will.
