P.S. I left a pair of pale-blue bedroom slippers under the bed. Will
you please have Mary wrap them up and mail them to me? And hold her
hand while she writes the address. She spelt my name on the place cards
"Mackbird."
Tuesday.
Dear Enemy:
As I told you, I left an application for an accomplished nurse with the
employment bureau of New York.
Wanted! A nurse maid with an ample lap suitable for the accommodation of
seventeen babies at once.
She came this afternoon, and this is the fine figure of a woman that I
drew!
We couldn't keep a baby from sliding off her lap unless we fastened him
firmly with safety pins.
Please give Sadie Kate the magazine. I'll read it tonight and return it
tomorrow.
