Dearest Minnie, I enclose a sample by which you will see that it is decidedly not the duck pattern. Miss Locke they say is doing very well, but they are not allowing her to see anyone now, so that Miss Cariet is no longer there. I have not given up hope yet of Saturday, for Saturday it would certainly have to be if I stayed over Monday, but it is now 11:20 and I have had simply one series of interruptions since 7:30 and have accomplished none of the things I had laid out for the morning. Yesterday I rested all the afternoon and evening. I am so glad the FoolGÇÖs Revenge was all that it ought to have been and that the word and the pictures accorded. Lovingly yours, Mary E.G. Oh, I forgot to say that I donGÇÖt know about the theatre, but am afraid Bessie may know it already. If not, I will be careful. I should not think they would misunderstand, however, for there is a good deal of difference between doing things at home and away, among everyone you know and among strangers. You have my note by this time written at the Station.
