I went to Toronto Thursday last (9th inst.) intending to stay a week and do a lot of things—but, rather curiously, my foot, which had been a little sore for a couple of weeks became much inflamed the same night I went down so that I had to make the best of my way home the next day—I have suffered a good deal of   pain and loss of sleep with it and am still confined to my room but am mending. I have your card of the 7th and your good letter of 8th and 9th and am glad to see that you are no worse. I have asked for leave of absence f'm 26th April to 1st June no answer yet—if I get it will spend part of the time at Atlantic City and part (I guess) at Ingram's?. I guess the grip (which   I had pretty bad about end Jan.) left something behind it (as it is apt to do) and I am suffering largely f'm that, whatever it is, but it has not taken on a serious form and I guess it won't—Lovely weather here bright and warm—will write again very soon
