Excerpt: ... has no mother, she tells me. Her aunt keeps house for them, and there is quite a family of children." 123 "Yes, and Patty is the youngest. She is going to write to me." "Bless me, how you are blossoming out into a correspondent. Well, don't let it take up so much of your time that you won't be able to drop in as often as usual.
