MS black-edged; M's nephew, George Doughty, died on 19 November 1893.
Am thrown into deep mourning, dear Mr Deane, through the death of the only son of
my late sister,
a young accomplished Gentleman in Adelaide. Through this sad event the calculation
of my time was also deranged. I have several sendings from you for which I am thankful
and which shall now soon have attention.
