Telling him of his sadness "but I get interest enough in my work to carry me on with that;" talking of his frustration with Joan [Agnew Severn] and Connie Hilliard who are quarreling about the "merits of their respective 'churches'--I should like to keep them both on bread and water and in brown serge for a month--with no young gentlemen to talk to--and see how they would like Romanism then or Presbyterianism either;" saying that "Joan quite well but I like her better at home. Travelling [sic] makes her giddy."
