I have quite decided that my marriage will take place the first Wednesday in June, which is, a8 you know, only about a month dis tant. Karl has not seemed as happy since he returned as he did in England. I am not at all jealous of my sister, for I can hold and eep my own at all times, yet I am not unaware that Leslie was, Karl's first love, and that that love lasted from the time they were children thru the years until she married—and after. I do not dis guise from myself, either, that I who if she could have loved r would probably have made him much happier than I shall, for they both have the same romantic and sentimental ideas.
