my personal thanks for her kindness to both of us. It is obvious that an effort to withhold the announcement would have been unwise, but if she had not loved you, she would not have been so unreserved in approving. I await eagerly news of the dinner and reception that evidently took place after you wrote. Of course your girls were properly thrilled and properly enthusiastic. I'll enjoy indeed writing to your seniors, and I'll try to make it a letter they will treasure. You give me the word when. Is there anything more concrete I can do for them? Anything I could send them for one of their parties, or something of that sort. We are well supplied with the Essay on Silence now. I have a copy that Hy gave me two or three years ago. Under the circumstances his sending it to you wasn't far from being clever. Listen, I have a gold pencil from a girl in Des Moines -- another one, not the one you know about. I had met her in Minneapolis last fall and seen her in Des Moines when I was on the way to see you. Of course I had spent some money showing her a good time, and she felt under obligation to me. I wrote her about you before we were married She sent a lovely letter in return and asked me to accept the gift that she had purchased before
