Father Marty was up here yesterday and says that your boat is all safe at Lahinch.

He says that Barney Morony is an idle fellow, but as he has nothing to do he can't help being idle.

You should come back and not let him be idle any more.

I think the sea gulls know that you are away, because they are wheeling and screaming about louder and bolder than ever.
Mother sends her best love.

She is very well.
