In her letter to Pauline Chen, Georgette Chen shares that she has been busy at school since her visit to Kuala Lumpur and has just recovered from a fever. She spent the whole morning with their mutual friend, Mrs. Yew-Koh, who sent updates on Pauline’s health. Georgette intends to visit in June. She plans to spend the month painting portraits of the Tunku and others, as well as landscapes, getting all her pictures framed, renting the exhibition hall, and preparing for her show. She is confident that Pauline will be well by June. The Loh family sends their well wishes to Pauline.
