LETTER XIX. A Lovers' Quarrel.

West 103d Street, New York, July 8, 1914.
My Dear Molly:

It is with pain I write to you in aught that can seem like a strain of reproach, but I confess that your conduct last night both surprised and vexed me. Your marked approbation of the attentions paid to you by Mr. Nichols was as obvious as your neglect of myself. Believe me, I am in no way given to idle jealousy; still less am I selfish or unmanly enough to wish to deprive any girl on whom I have so firmly fixed my affections of any pleasure to be obtained in good society. But my peace of mind would be lost forever did I believe that I have lost one atom of your affection.

Pray write and assure me that you still preserve your undivided affection for

Your devoted but grieved

Robert.
