HAGLEY, December 26th, 1864.
—Albert played in the service for the day. We kept Christmas in the technical sense ; viz., general holyday and monster dinner of all the creatures—counting Fred, we make up the dozen, but oh for Meriel and John ! Uproarious fun and games, ending in famous chorus singing and "God save the Queen." Next Christmas, alas ! we shall probably be without dear old Nevy, whose Rifle Brigade commission may come any day.
