Dear Mrs Hughes,

亲爱的休斯太太
I hope you've had some time to yourself while we've been away.

我希望我们不在的这段时间你给自己放过假了
I've tackled a few jobs that get forgotten about

趁着没人我把之前总忘记做的活
when the house is full.

都做完了
Any local news?

这里有什么新鲜事吗
The main topic here is the murder of the Austrian Archduke.

大家都在谈奥匈帝国大公遇刺的事
Here and everywhere else.

走到哪里都是这个话题
I'm afraid we haven't heard the last of that.

恐怕这事没那么容易过去
- And how is William? - Bearing up.

-威廉怎么样了 -硬撑着呢
Poor chap. He has our sympathies.

可怜的孩子真为他难过
I think I'll wash the train off before dinner.

我想在晚餐前洗洗尘
Very good, milord. I can unpack while you're bathing.

好的老爷您去沐浴我来整理行李
