Lord Kelvin (1824-1907)
Letter of Lord and Lady Kelvin to their nephew, William Bottomley, 31 December 1891
These two events
coming together
feel very sad &
incongruous.
I am sure your
Annie will sympathise
with us. My mother's
death must have
been very sudden. The
telegram says "of influenza".
We shall be home
on Saty night
In haste – yr affectionate
aunt FTThomson
