“My dear Lockhart,—The return of mama and Anne to this place gave us yesterday a pleasant reunion, the more so as Lady Scott was much better than I had ventured to expect. The medicine which she is taking (digitalis or foxglove) seems to agree with her and do her much service, and I trust with care her health may be in a great measure restored. She is so well, and in such a good way, that she and I have a serious plan to send her up to be with Sophia during her illness.”
