All the passengers apparently laid in a stock of "Gallegher" and "The West" before starting, and young women in yachting caps are constantly holding me up for autographs and favorite quotations.

Yesterday we passed the Azores near enough to see the windows in the houses, and we have seen other islands at different times, which is quite refreshing.

Tomorrow I shall post this and the trip will be over.

It has been a most happy start.

I am not going to write letters often, but am going head over ears into this new life and let the old one wait awhile.
