Sunday continued. I’ve come back to bed—there was no way to put in the time. It is still raining as hard as ever, & is reposeful & contenting. I finished both letters—oh, acres of MS!— make them kill time for me as long as I could. If by good luck Mr. Rogers says yes—but I know he will, & then I shall do as I’ve said.

June 11 Monday – In Dublin, N.H. Sam wrote to Charlotte Teller Johnson, trying to cheer her up; she was discouraged “after a long hard siege of work,” as he put it. He regretted his “foolish letter” to her, and acknowledged that her “nerves would be worn” from her “long toil.”

June 10 Sunday – In the evening in Dublin, N.H. Sam wrote to Charlotte Teller Johnson.
Let me congratulate, let me shout! I wrote you a good deal of a letter to-day, & took a world of pains with it, in the pretty doubtful hope of persuading you to put the work aside a while & not destroy yourself with it, but I have burnt it without a regret for the labor wasted. Charlotte dear, you have come through handsomely, you remarkable creature! Take a good satisfying rest— you deserve it.
