Letter to Mabel Brewster from William Osler, 13, Norham Gardens, Oxford, Oxfordshire, England. Wishes he could be at Avalon today. They have their house full but their hearts are empty with Revere away. Mentions his bronchitis which allowed him to keep some rest. Grace and Susan Chapin are helping with the Christmas dinners at the Hospital. Praises them. Good comments on Uncle Ned's (E.S. Martin) editorials in Life. Comments on Wilson's Peace Kite. Glad that Abraham Lincoln is often quoted in England and serves as a model. Says that they must fight to a finish now. Best wishes for 1917.
Osler, William, Sir, 1849-1919
