writing to mr. hopper
I am in new york for a few days
& would very much like to see you
it is so warm & beautiful here
the park is lovely with the leaves just out
saturday evening can you come
it is so warm & beautiful here
the park is lovely with the leaves just out
I would very much like to see you
so sorry to have missed you saturday evening
I saw a tall man wandering
up & down outside
it was raining very hard
will you come again monday
I am sometimes free after tea
of course if it is a bad day
you will not expect me
I think I told you
I cannot
this week & next
I cannot possibly
I had a very alarming dream
it was raining very hard
a tall man tried to throw me down a cliff or something
I am quite frozen
you must see how deeply I regret
the park was so lovely with the leaves just out
