She cannot be left here under these conditions.
I am writing to Aunt Caroline, briefly, that I am immersed in study and that my return is indefinite.

Don't, for heaven's sake, let her suspect that I have employed Miss Farr as secretary.

You know Aunt Caroline's failing.

Do be discreet! Yours, B.H.

S.
P.S.: Any arrangement I may find it necessary to propose in Miss Farr's case will be based on business, not sentiment.
