"Settled comfortably in Eagle Nest House. Devilish rugged and
out-of-the-way place. Mrs. Van Haltford is called Aunt Josephine. She and
Miss Debby Crozier have rooms on the third floor. Mine is next to theirs,
Havens's is next to mine, and Mrs. Wharton has two rooms beyond his. We
are not unlike a big family party. They're rather nice to me. I go
walking with Aunt Josephine. I don't understand why I'm sandwiched in
between Havens and Aunt Josephine. Otherwise the arrangement is neat.
There is a veranda outside our windows. We sit upon it. Aunt Josephine
is a great bluff, but she's clever. She's never napping. I've tried to
pump her. Miss Crozier is harmless. She doesn't care. Havens never takes
his eyes off Mrs. W. when they are together. She looks at him a good bit,
too. They don't pay much attention to me. Aunt Josephine's husband is
very old and very busy. He can't take vacations. Everybody went to bed
early to-night. No evidence to-day."
