Because she’s been neglecting him badly with her sparse letters, Dot wouldn’t blame Dart if he never wrote to her again, but she certainly hopes he will!

Her cousins have been running the family ragged. They’re always up for anything, and never seem to be tired. “Guess I’m going through the period Mom used to talk about when you ‘begin to feel your many years!'” It was Playland last night and New York City for dinner and a play tonight. Phew! She’s exhausted!

She says it’ll literally take a lifetime to answer all his letters, and she’s looking forward to those years with great anticipation. Her parents were greatly impressed with Dart’s letter to them and they believe as Dot does that she’s very lucky to have found such a man.

She’s sorry to learn that Fred has been feeling so disgruntled, although she’s confident a visit with Dart has done wonders for his disposition. She appreciates Dart’s great sense of humor and is sure it helped draw Fred back to his old self.

It is absolutely essential that both the future bride and her intended be present at the big announcement dinner. Therefore, he’d better get to Greenwich before September 27th because that’s the day she hopes to report to Kent State University. The only thing standing in the way of her application is writing her life story. “Would you care to help me,” she asks Dart.

She closes by saying, “I love you, my Darling, and the prospect of our coming years together thrills me beyond all description.”
