"
In August we went over the Honister Pass, to Buttermere Vicarage, into which nutshell of a house six of us packed; while Guy and Will, with Seymour Horan, had rooms out. Father was responsible for the duty there this month, in the very tiny Church; and it was a moving sight for me to see him assisted in the service by his two sons in Holy Orders. Aunt Emily and Alice put up at the hotel at Buttermere for a week, and thus enlarged our family party; and we had Tea picnics at Crummock Water, and elsewhere; and all-day walking excursions. Ever since this summer Seymour has been more or less a member of the family, and quasi-brother to you all and my 'seventh son'; and as I write, we are within a few days of his entering the family as a Nephew."
