4/ one of them Commissioner of Agriculture, Mr. McWray. We had eaten every scrap of supper & of course they protested they wanted nothing, so I cut a watermelon, gave them some of Mrs. Fulton's preserved figs & gingersnaps! Neither eggs nor milk left, so there was not much left for me to do besides watermelon!

I have had a darling letter from Nanette,- & just sent Kate one she wrote me when she was about 11 saying among other things: "please don't show this letter to anyone in your [[underlined]] holl [[/underlined]] life"!

Much, much love
G-.
