| Transcript | Queens Chambers Pirie St. Adelaide July 5th 1892 My dear James I am off to the country in a hurry, but lest you might think I forget you, will write you an apology for a letter for the present. It is seldom we have rain here, but it is raining today. Max O'Rell is here; Foli has been with the remains of his top & bottom, and the whole of his middle Registers. I send you some articles on Imperial Federation that may interest. I am sure they are more logical and complete than any single essay yet published. You are a sportsman still. Well, so am I, hypertrophy of the heart etc., notwithstanding. I have "Modesty" again, a little 15 hands fly-away, who carried me through the two last hunts, though only a week in stable. She often flies a 4 foot post & rail fence from the metal of the Road, & I ride her without whip or spur. Cadger is as good as ever. I hope Mrs. G is by this time better. You must give her for me the respects of a brother. By this time you must regret that you did not put an end to bachelorhood earlier. It is a dull, starved life, except for boosers etc. I saw Eugene last week. He is getting on comfortably, and appears to be liked. For a town practice he would want high string energy here at first, and Eugene prefers to take the world at a reasonable pace. If he has not written to you, it may be that he would prefer to stand on one leg for an hour, than write a letter. You will, I know, excuse me today. Let me know how the new work is getting on. Your affectionate Brother P. McM. Glynn |
