Dear boy,
I have missed you since you left and last night was quite lonely with out you. The thought that you may be worrying about what happened Sum. night and your aversion to the possible result, arouses a feeling that you do not think I am capable of having it is sympathy. Perhaps the strongest reason I have had for not wanting you to have a child, is the thought that it might hinder you in fully realizing your work. I am certain that this is the strongest reason, any others that I sometimes have had were but momentary and are not worth while comparing with it.
