H'ry to Wm, June 5, 1910. Age: 67
Even before it was apparent that Wm's condition had turned, for the last time, for the worse, H'ry has decided to leave Lamb House and return to America with his brother, so as to pursue "salvation":
"I unspeakably long to see you -- & to make a long, long break with this place. There is no 'enjoying' of it now -- I so want not to be in it. I am in a funk about our journey, but such feelings will yield to courage & to braving it."
They sailed home together aboard the Empress of Britain.
