LETTER LXXI. Young Lady's Answer to the Foregoing.

Victoria, September 3, 1913.
My Good, True-hearted Charlie:

I can only reply in answer to your kind, wise letter, that though I am anxious to call you husband, I can but too clearly see that unpreventable causes defer the dearest wish of, I truly believe, both our hearts. I would be unworthy of the affection of so good and true a man, if I did not readily acquiesce in your wish to put off our marriage until your circumstances warrant you in incurring the necessary additional outlays. Of course it will be a little difficult to explain to the Mrs. Grundys of our little social set all the reasons of the postponement. But this is but a slight cross for one to bear for the sake of the person one so dearly loves as I do you, my own dear Charlie. I will wait as long as you see fit, so that I may at last call you husband.

Ever most truly yours,

Jessie Dolora.
To Charles Angelo, Esq., San Francisco.
