My dearest Polly—
This has been a week of new things - Georgie left us on Monday night - Uncle José turning up & assisting in the seeing of her off. Who do you suppose I have in her place? Little Sallie — !  If you had told me this last week I should have howled.  Emma proposed it, said she would do better than she could, which I verily believe is the case.  She came on Monday before G. left & was initiated into office by the ex teacher herself. 
She is perfectly charming & I really never saw any thing in her but nonsense - she is clever enough for any thing.
