Nevertheless they must have talked to Dudley about it, for he has not been to see us at all. Annie Tinkham told him twice that I had arrived, and he only said "ah! indeed", evidently trying to play the indifferent. However the Friday after we arrived I took and evening walk, and on Dearborn Street who should I meet but Dudley and he was anything but indifferent then, he wheeled around directly and walked home with me. He is just exactly the same, I don't think he has changed a particle or grown a bit, in fact I don't think he is quite as good looking as he was. He has the sense to avoid both stovepipe hats and long tailed coats. He walked to the gate but would not come in (his Father was in the parlor) and it is fortunate he did not, for Nene told me at the door that Johnny D was in the parlor. Sister told me not to go down and see him, but I finally convinced her that if I saw him that time, then the next time he called I could be "out". whereas if I did not, on his next visit I should be obliged to see him. So I brushed my hair and descended, Johnny is now six feet high and a snip; however he really is not at all bad looking, his features are very delicate and his nose is especially good, when he has a moustache to cover his upper lip which advances to far, and if he gets tanned he will be very good looking if not handsome. I don't know what his natural abilities are, but anyway with such a horrid mother, he never can amount to much. He expects to go to Europe next Summer after graduating at the Law school
