Ralph Abercromby to Jane Johnson, 24 November

Discussion of George’s return from Rugby school – Abercromby would have told her earlier when the horses should be sent to pick them up, but he did not know when they would break up. George is in very good health and sends his duty to his parents – both he and Abercromby send their compliments to family.
