will be by the way of Worcester and Springfield, & Hartford railroads. How far would that be from Royalston & thereabouts? Would it not be a nice plan, if I could only have a fortnight's vacation in stead of a week, and (a much more important "if") if I only had a little money of my own to spend, for me to visit some of the folks there? You ask why I go to Yale. It is to be a sort of a Convention, a great meeting of DKE Greek letters from different Institutions. I am to represent Old Bowdoin there. It will be a great time, I assure you. "A real high old time" as my fellow boarder the "Capting" Merrill would say. It appears that Lucy is to be at Bangor this winter. I am really glad of it: that is if you can get along without her at home. I think it is just exactly what she needs. What sort of a chance will she have to get into Society there? I think she ought to write to me long before this time. It is long since I have heard a word from her. She does not write so well as she need to. I have an idea to go to Royalston & Warwick, but I suppose it will not do. What sort of a thing is that little penny? as good as she was last spring? You know she is a real favorite of mine. I want you should do really well by her. Do you not like her better than little James? I think though that he is a good little fellow; the best of the lot of them.
