When I came here I gave the concierge 5f and it had a most magical effect for the good care she has taken of us since makes me wish I was rich enough to give her a good deal more. Brush sleeps on the sofa in the studio, it is needless to say that we both like our new place very much and are exceedingly comfortable. This evening when I came in from dinner the glorious light of the setting sun was beautifully reflected on the clouds and these glimpses of nature from way up here where it is so still are delightfully refreshing when one is in the heart of Paris. I have of course continued directly at the atelier but this past week was broken into by the marriage of Tracey to his French fiancée Mlle Guilleman. Pardsus and I were his two timoins and at half past ten P. came after me in a carriage. The ceremony was entirely civil and the brevity which characterized the actions of the little stout man decorated with the nice sash was rather amusing. We all drove from the Marie to St Mande and there such a day I never saw equalled, and there is no danger of my ever forgetting it or the little married woman and our dance, and the ride home or Bichette and Liza, what a jolly day it would baffle any attempt of mine at description so I shall leave it. Letters from home tell me that they are all well Frank and Nannie have left their house and moved out to Dawn. Father and Mother and Charlie remain on the farm until fall and then move into their new house no 300 Indiana St The new temperance movement has discouraged Father in his new branch and as soon as he can he will doubtless return to groceries, things are going very closely with him I am sorry to say and I am close on my expense account so as to cause him as little trouble as possible.
