Thursday night.

My darling,

Your dear little note is just at home and I am sending off to you tonight the few cards I have. I am hoping the Mr. Close may have a supply, in which case I will send them too tomorrow morning. I have searched the study for them in vain.

You poor dear! The feeling to which you confess is so pathetic and so natural! I too am feeling it; - have to make myself go out, - don't want to meet anyone, &c., &c. - very silly of course. Jessie & I are alive tonight. Nell at Sister Annies and Margaret dining at the McElroys.

But I must stop and give this to the shut-up man.

Devotedly,

Your own Eileen
