There was a slight noise behind her and she turned just in time to seize a small boy by the slack of his roundabout and arrest his flight. Your letter from Chicago interested me very much. It caused me to think of the time I was there several years ago. I hope your trip will end as pleasantly as it has begun. Things have been rather dull for me since you left, for there is not much happening now. Most of our friends, as you know, are away. I have been keeping pretty busy, however, and this has helped to keep me from feeling depressed. Nevertheless, there are times when I recall the happy days we had together, and then I miss you terribly... Love...
