chiefly about the large English 1 section meeting that I missed. I wrote about the preparation for it instead. The book report that I wrote is due next week, so I am that much ahead.

I studied in the library this , It works much better than my room. I wish I had done that sooner. The quiet rules are certainly not observed.

Dr. T. accepted Dr. F's letter, but told me to tell him she wants a statement from him about the particulars of the case. Poor Dr. T. - her feelings are hurt that I never submitted to her examination...Incidentally, I am no better today, but it is raining + very damp, so it's all right.
I met Mrs. Robeson's niece today, whom Mlle. told me to look up. I also saw Helen J. for a while yesterday. Her room-mate who had appendicitis has 7 wks. work to make up.
I understand there was quite a loss in the Josselyn [fire.]
Love, Fannie
