Sunday Night
March 8th 1896

My Dear Chris,

Went to St. Bartholomew's Church this
morning, did not particularly enjoy it,
and this afternoon went to the Randall's
and then jumped in upon Mae Van
just about 6 o'clock. I could only stay
a few minutes, so we talked a blue streak
and then she walked a few blocks with
me to where I took the car. We always
enjoy each other so much, - even for a
few minutes. Tonight I am all alone.
Have been reading lately - "The Gates
Ajar" by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps - It is
a most beautiful and touching little
book - We had an awfully long
chapter to read last night but a most
helpful and beautiful passage. We
shall soon be through the psalms. The
22nd of march finishes there. Suppose
we take the Gospel of John, one chapter
a night, after the psalms give out.
Let me know if this place pleases
