'I was, as you will understand, very sorry to learn from Whyte that you were gone from the Grand. I did not look forward with pleasure to returning there had I known of any other place suitable I think I should have changed, but Grieve proved very kind indeed, & did his best to make the house to me what it was with yourself & Mrs. Mann there.
