I'm tired, I need a rest. I'd have gone down fighting, but I guess you've saved me. I've been true to my convictions, you, who belong to the new generation, must be true to yours.

She is a splendid girl quite the best girl in the whole school; and she likes you, Betty she has told me so. I am given to understand that you are to have the honorable distinction of becoming a Speciality.
The girls chatted a great deal to-night, and Betty was told of all the privileges which would now be hers.
