While I am .sorry to hear that you have left the\nBlub, still I can well understand your reasons for doing so.\nI must confess, however, to some surprise to learn that Miss\nHardwick has not proved as loyal 86 we expected her to.\nI have not seen Miss Johnson so do not\nknow the status at Babylon. When I last heartI found they\nhad made an appointment for the position. I wrote to her,\nhowever, telling her that should another vacancy occur to keep\nyou in mind.\nYour little frield, with the long and\ndifficult name, who epeake of you as \"Gyp\" and who lives here\nin Washington, came in to see me a few days go in order to\nintroduce a physician who wanted some information. She told\nme that you always made your headquarters with her while you\nwere herè. She seemed to be deeply interested in your future.\nDo not bother about the little chain if\nit is not perfectly convenient. I thought, however, 'should\nlike to have one.\nSo you are to make a tour of England\nand Scotland. I sincerely hope that during that time you\nwill recover from your disappointments and reestablish your\nhealth on a little more certain basis. you do not say that\nyou are ill, but you looked badly when I last saw you and\nI really think you need a complete change.\nI have little news to tell you, except\nthat I have bought a little house in Georgetown and I hope\nthe next time you come to Fashing ton you can stop with ae."
