All quiet here; the ground is frozen again and of course the roads are more difficult to travel than the path to heaven, all lumps and ruts. I am reading George Eliot's Romola over again—have not read it for many years—do not find it as much of a book as I used to fancy it—a lot of padding in it. We have had a new deal in our Ontario govt (just heard of it an hour ago)—Pardee's resignation has apparently been accepted for A.S. Hardy (who was Provincial Secretary—and  in whose department runs the asylum) is made Commissioner of Crown Lands and a new man (Gibson of Hamliton) is made Provincial Secretary. We (i.e. the asylum officials) shall not be sorry for the change tho' I cannot say that I care particularly—Mr Hardy always used me well. Still on the whole the change will probably be a good one for the asylum service. Patients dance going on upstairs in the amusement room—I must go up.

I send you best wishes R M Bucke
