[Incomplete\u2014end missing]] 146 Bay St. Springfield, Mass. Thursday noon.\u00a0 \u201cDears:\u00a0 Here I am, sitting on the edge of my chair, with many a thing to say, and only a little while to say it in!\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMy dear dear Two:\u00a0 We have thought of you, often, on this first Sunday, and Father even expressed the wish that you could have some of our delicious roast-beef!\u201d\u00a0 Sunday.<\/p>\n
[Incomplete\u2014end missing] 146 Bay St. Springfield, Mass. Sunday Afternoon.\u00a0 \u201cDears,\u2014Mother and Sister:\u00a0 I have had such a beautiful long morning, (for I decided that I would not go to church to-day) writing, and reading a book so interesting that I can\u2019t bear to think of leaving it to be finished another day…\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2018Dears:\u00a0 You are really to have a box from home!\u00a0 Guess what there will be in it.\u201d<\/p>\n
[probably January 22, 1905]\u00a0 Sunday Afternoon. \u201cDear Ones who belong to me:\u00a0 I wonder what you\u2019re doing this afternoon,\u2014if Helen is longing for her auto harp, if Melvin is visiting you, if the sun is shining, if you are lonely.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cYou asked me to tell you about Mrs. Merrell\u2019s death: I know very little, except that it was not unexpected.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDearest Mother and Sister:\u00a0 In a little while I am going to the Unitarian Church with Lucy, but if I write as fast as I know how, I shall be able to say a good deal before we start.\u201d<\/p>\n
Postmarked Springfield, Mass. Highland Sta. Feb 19 5 30 PM 1905. Addressed to Miss Helen de Long Montreat North Carolina. \u201cDear Little Sister:\u00a0 I send you to-day a box for your eighteenth birthday, the most important day of your life so far, you think, I suppose!\u201d<\/p>\n
146 Bay St. Springfield, Mass. March 2, 1905.\u00a0 \u201cMy dear Two: This vacation has been so full of doings and happenings that I\u2019ve found no time for a true vacation letter…\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cMy dearest Mother:\u00a0 Your letters and Helen\u2019s have given me joy, lately, with their accounts of what sound like very good times.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cDear Mother:\u00a0 Your little note has just come, and lest you may want to start on Friday, I hasten to send you more checks.\u201d\u00a0 Tuesday Night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
