| Description | Letter to Marion Sambourne from her brother Edgar Herapath, saying he should arrive in Cape Town tomorrow, describes the voyage, hopes that Edith [Furrell] got back to Hamburg safely and is glad her visit was a success, he will be glad to get off the ship and go into service, hopes they will see the Boers off by June, thinks he may be sent to India if he comes through this war as it is doubtful if his Colonel's health will hold out.
Written on board SS Goorkha. |
