Thursday Jan 9, 1902 Dearest daddykins My trunk came yesterday morning just after I had sent that letter to sister, and everything in it was all right. Last night I went to work and fixed my room all up, and hung my pictures. Yesterday afternoon Cerene and Margaret Starr and Louis Veile and I went down town and haunted the five and ten cent store, where I purchased a gorgeous father duster for ten cents! Then I made myself a present of a napkin ring at 19¢ and an ink stand at 20¢, all of which I have combined to make me content to live a while longer. In fact I would be perfectly happy if it were not for the fact that I have to study, and that heavy fall of snow has temporarily spoiled the skating. However they have some sort of thing pulled by horses to take the snow off the ice. Be sure and get those pamphlets for me won’t you about the city’s laws on vaccination and tuberculosis, and don’t send them later than Friday afternoon or evening. Well I must go to work now so farewell for the present, Peggy Was that letter I wrote to Ruth Pratt ever mailed? If not will you please mail it?
