Footnote
Goodwin's diary, 1902, May 8th, Thursday, 9pm, Salisbury. ‘Thank god for a safe return. We found a letter saying that Mother would be at Salisbury, and our ship getting in at 6am we came on, reaching here at 10am. Olive’s squeal of delight when she saw our faces at the carriage window was our first welcome, though the lovely landscape had smiled a welcome to us long before. Now at last we are with htose we love and I suppose the whole past three months will soon be as a dream.'
