I am delighted to hear that you are going to improve in your spelling,
because nobody can write properly without spelling well. But I know you
will learn whatever you are taught, because you are always good,
industrious, and attentive. That is what I always say of my Mamey.
The note you sent me this morning is a very nice one, and the spelling
is beautiful.
Always, my dear Mamey,
Your affectionate Papa.
