My dear Nannie

It is 3:45 P.M. sitting at my drawing desk supposed to be and I am drawing- but I have finished my model and am waiting for Prof. Clark to come around and criticize it, so have nothing else to scribble you a line on but this scrap of paper which I have spoiled for any drawing purpose. Whether this will amount to enough of a letter to send will depend entirely upon how long it takes Prof. C. to get around the class so I must write fast. Rose has probably told you that I went down Saturday to stay with Mrs. Mabury. Rose felt that her two examinations would keep her too busy to afford the time; so I had to go alone. Went down on the 8:70 train with Miriam Maclaren. M......Then went out to Jeanie's - all the rest of the family being in S.F. for the day. Carlotta having a yellow satin gown made to wear at Eva Hawkings' wedding as she is to be her bridesmaid. Won't she look regal? I had a very pleasant afternoon with Jeanie, we went driving - and got back just as Mrs. Mabury arrived - Carlotta and Bella staying until a later train. Sunday afternoon Carlotta, Bella and I - with a Miss Phelps went to drive. We found ourselves out by the Bartsows' new home and so we went in and had a very pleasant call. Grace played for us and so sweetly and soulfully. Their home is built cheaply rough wood finish inside - no plaster - but the beams and odd corners and nooks make a very artistic home. The main room downstairs is is the music room 23 feet long, quite the pride of Grace's heart. I came back on the 8 o'clock train this morning having had a perfectly lovely time. Mrs Bean and "Joel"called Sunday afternoom and Mrs.Bean inquired youraddress saying she was going to writie to you while visiting'Cathe'. What a cultured woman she is! heart culture and mind culture so combined makes a rare woman. She sent her love to you
