I heartily join with you in wishing her every good that life can bring her.

I don't want to be pessimistic, but I can't help feeling, Linda, that she is taking a poor way to win the best, and I gravely doubt whether she finds it in the spending of unlimited quantities of the money of a coarse man who stumbled upon his riches accidentally, as has many a man of California and Colorado.
I intended, when I sat down to write, the very first thing I said, to thank you for your wonderful invitation, seconded so loyally and cordially by Katy, to make my home with you until the time comes--if it ever does come--when I shall have a home of my own again.

And just as simply and wholeheartedly as you made the offer, I accept it.

I am enclosing the address and the receipt for my furniture in storage, and a few lines ordering it delivered at your house and the bill sent to me.
I only kept a few heirlooms and things of Mother's and Father's that are very precious to me.

Whenever Eileen takes her things you can order mine in and let me know, and I'll take a day or two off and run down for a short visit.
Mentioning Eileen makes me think of John.
