[Postcard] 
[Algiers,] 23 February 1882 

Dearest Child, 

The good weather has set in; live in a most comfortable Villa, out 
of the fortifications of Algiers, on the hills; only thing I want now is 
tranquillity, hope soon to be a ‘better’ man again. 

Kisses to all the children; compliments to Longuet. 

Yours most devoted
