My dear Mr. Stewardson:-
Mrs. Taylor and I have had you and Mrs. Stewardson very much in mind since our return to this country, and I have thought of you many times since my delightful visit to Geneva.
We are at last settled in Plymouth, and our routine has been established, which I hope will last until well into the fall. I think I wrote you in my last letter that Mrs. Taylor was not on the whole benefited by her trip abroad. She tried to do a lot of sight-seeing, and without doubt was continually overdoing nervously and physically.
The great good which has come from her trip has been that she is prepared definitely to follow the doctor's advice now that she is home again, and also that she learned while she was abroad very remarkable self-control, and she is now able to carry out the daily routine prescribed by the doctor; and do so comparatively cheerfully, whereas before she left home she felt absolutely sure that all which she required for her to be entirely well was the recreation and amusement which would come from travel.
I have consulted two very able doctors since returning to this country, two of our very best, and they both said exactly the same thing; that in a case of nervous exhaustion what she required primarily was absolute and complete physical and mental rest.
