Just before Dot leaves to go shopping in downtown Cleveland with Dart’s mother, she jots off a quick note to tell him about her recent activities.

She went to Oberlin College yesterday to visit Cynthia. While they were touring the conservatory of music, they ran into Dart’s cousin, Margaret practicing piano. As soon as Margaret saw Dot, she jumped up and asked where she had seen that face before. Then she instantly remembered all the pictures Dart had shown her of his girl, and she began to pepper Dot with questions about him. Dot was happy to tell all she had learned about his situation from his 11 letters to her.

The beauty of the Andrews campus has spoiled Dot. She wasn’t too impressed with the Oberlin dorms, but says the girls she met there were very nice. The school has recently opened a beautiful new gym, complete with swimming pool and a three-lane bowling alley.

Dot plans to leave on the 8:30 train tonight, even though his parents have asked her to stay longer. She doesn’t want to over stay her welcome, and she knows the longer she stays with his family, the harder it’ll be to leave. Oh, how she wishes she lived in Cleveland!

With a reminder that she loves him very much, she says she’ll try to write more later – maybe from the train.
