The wedding day is not yet set exactly. It will be in the early summer,
after Keefe has finished some orders he has, and so is feeling quite
rich, and after I have really got the Mountain Industries in such a
condition that I can safely pass them on to others. Even after I am
married I shall keep an overseeing eye on them, and Mrs. Carson and Carin
will help me. Then, of course, there is my trousseau to make. I am so
glad you let me have dear little madam grandmother’s chests. I think I
can make over her wedding dress so that I can wear it, and of course I
shall wear her veil.
If you will send on the portrait that she had painted for me, I can hang
it above my new piano in my little sitting room. Or shall I hang it
above my fireplace? I must try and see in which place it looks the best.
My heart is singing with joy, and I send you a thousand little carefully
wrapped packages of love. Undo them one by one and think of
_Azalea_.
