“Ossining on the Hudson”-- or as Ruth says Ossining on the bum.
Wll dear sis, I’ve been having the time of my young life! Maybe I wasn’t tired and cross by the time my last examination was over. And maybe it wasn’t pure joy to board the train for Ossining on Friday morning. We
got here just in time for lunch, and since then life has been pure joy. The Underhills are incomparable! Every one of them, Mr and Mrs, Ruth her sister Margaret seventeen, Robert thirteen and Elizabeth eight. I love and adore them all. They are so interesting, so clever, and so good. And they are all just as handsome
as can be.
Saturday afternoon we went to New York and saw Sorthern[E. H. Sothern] in “If I were King,” and oh, but it was fine, and it was so nice and gay to watch the people.
Well, I have to talk and make myself agreeable now, but I’ll write you tomorrow or next day. I hate to think of going back to night and beginning work again to morrow. I don’t seem to be altogether rested yet, as I can’t sleep very well, but I suppose I’ll calm down again now that the strain of exams is over.
Farewell
Slews of love
Peg.
Goes between semesters with Ruth Underhill to Ossining.
