== Letter ==

My Dear Major

It was quite a pleasure to me to see your handwriting again. I shall always regret that I did not see you when you came to London. Pray give my kindest remembrances to Mrs. Pond and the little man. You will, I am sure, be glad to hear that my wife's health has much improved.

Has not the Anglo-American 'entente cordiale' which I preached when I was in the States grown since 1894. It is the best and healthiest sign in the waning century. But we have much still to do.

Yours always

A. Conan Doyle.
