For the Bazar

WHO?

Who loves to steal a while away 
From sinful joys & foolish play 
And fold her holy hands & pray? 
The Bitch. 
Who loves to watch while others pray, 
And hog their assets, night & day, 
Wherewith to fat her Ashcroft—say
The Bitch, 
(To be continued.)

Jan, 14. 
The ship is in, your letters are received. Many thanks, 
Mrs. Allen greatly wants to know if those plants survived & are flourishing, Please tell us. 
Will Mrs. Paine please type the “last words” of my Autobiography (about Jean’s death) & mail it to Clara. 
I will tell Clara it is coming, / With love to you all / .., [MTP].

Edgar & Curtis, Real Estate, NYC wrote to ask for the opportunity of offering your house (in Ridgefield) for sale [MTP}.
