As ever

Later --
At a newly married cousins who is very sweet -- honey moon not over, are going to hear "Hamlet" tonight. Heard a very excellent sermon and some splendid singing this p.m.
Hope I shall soon hear from you again. I find I look quite anxiously for them -- your letters. Do you feel flattered? Well you had better not for I like to receive other peoples letters. Cousin George says, "say for me that I love my country and my wife". Can't hear myself think for the talk.
Good night Nell
