170 September 7.th 1890. Sunday Tuesday morning I went to the tennis at the Casino. I was sitting next to Georgette Sherman when some one came up and began to talk to her. Sybil who was on the other side of G. said something to me I answed. Then Mr Astor, for it was he said in a low tone, who it it, meaning me. Georgette answered. He said: "Introduce me". G. said "Gertrude, [[strikethrough]] H [[strikethrough]] Mr Astor " (something like that.) I stood up shook hands and sat down again. "I think I saw you the other night at the dinner at your house, on the piazza "Why really, I don't think [[end page]] [[start page]] 171 I was there" I answed. "Why I was sitting next to Miss Wilson and she said she saw a ghost, and we thought it must be you" "I think it must have been someone else, for I was not on the piazza that night". "And I saw you in the Gallerie the other night" "You mean at the dance, oh yes, I was there, it [[strikethrough]] would [[/strikethrough]] was great fun watching the people" "You will be out soon I suppose" "Yes quite soon" "About four years" "Yes, three or four years" "Dos'nt the time seem very long" "No, time passes so quickly it will soon be here"
