Please

,

please

,

Clyde

,

write

and

tell

me

that

you

will

be

here

at

the

end

of

the

time

that

you

said

.

I

worry

so

and

get

so

lonesome

off

here

all

by

myself

.

I

will

come

straight

back

to

you

if

you

do

n't

come

by

the

time

you

said

.

I

know

you

will

not

like

me

to

say

this

,

but

,

Clyde

,

I

ca

n't

stay

here

and

that

's

all

there

is

to

it

.

And

I

ca

n't

go

away

with

Mamma

and

Papa

either

,

so

there

is

only

one

way

out

.

I

do

n't

believe

I

will

sleep

a

wink

to-night

,

so

please

write

me

and

in

your

letter

tell

me

over

and

over

not

to

worry

about

your

not

coming

for

me

.

If

you

could

only

come

to-day

,

dear

,

or

this

week-end

,

I

would

n't

feel

so

blue

.

But

nearly

two

weeks

more

!

Every

one

is

in

bed

and

the

house

is

still

,

so

I

will

stop

.

But

please

write

me

,

dear

,

right

away

,

or

if

you

wo

n't

do

that

call

me

up

sure

to-morrow

,

because

I

just

ca

n't

rest

one

single

minute

until

I

do

hear

from

you

.

Your

miserable

ROBERTA

.

P.

S.

:

This

is

a

horrid

letter

,

but

I

just

ca

n't

write

a

better

one

.

I

'm

so

blue

.

But

the

day

this

letter

arrived

in

Lycurgus

Clyde

was

not

there

to

answer

it

at

once

.

And

because

of

that

,

Roberta

being

in

the

darkest

and

most

hysterical

mood

and

thought

,

sat

down

on

Saturday

afternoon

and

,

half-convinced

as

she

was

that

he

might

already

have

departed

for

some

distant

point

without

any

word

to

her

,

almost

shrieked

or

screamed

,

if

one

were

to

properly

characterize

the

mood

that

animated

the

following

:

Biltz

,

Saturday

,

June

14th

.

MY

DEAR

CLYDE

:

Отключить рекламу

I

am

writing

to

tell

you

that

I

am

coming

back

to

Lycurgus

.

I

simply

ca

n't

stay

here

any

longer

.

Mamma

worries

and

wonders

why

I

cry

so

much

,

and

I

am

just

about

sick

.

I

know

I

promised

to

stay

until

the

25th

or

26th

,

but

then

you

said

you

would

write

me

,

but

you

never

have

--

only

an

occasional

telephone

message

when

I

am

almost

crazy

.

I

woke

up

this

morning

and

could

n't

help

crying

right

away

and

this

afternoon

my

headache

is

dreadful

.

I

'm

so

afraid

you

wo

n't

come

and

I

'm

so

frightened

,

dear

.

Please

come

and

take

me

away

some

place

,

anywhere

,

so

I

can

get

out

of

here

and

not

worry

like

I

do

.

I

'm

so

afraid

in

the

state

that

I

'm

in

that

Papa

and

Mamma

may

make

me

tell

the

whole

affair

or

that

they

will

find

it

out

for

themselves

.
