August 9, 1881? 11/1881 This, then is the 12th anniversary of our wedding and the first one, upon which we are apart from each other. It is a fit occasion to grow sentimental about and revive all the sweet memories this day brings up. But perhaps it is better for each of us to go over those memories singly. The past, the present and the future wear a different aspect to a woman of 33 and to a man of 54 years of age. You are now on the very print? to accomplish your full maturity and to become a strong, healthy, lusty woman with a fine vista upon a life of happi ness and usefulness after I shall have been re- moved from a life which has become stale and dreary to me. You, as yet live towards the future, while I only live towards the past.
