It went very smooth.

All my love to Noll and to you.
DICK.
Read the other letter first and then, let me tell you that when I went out to see Sargent, I found Cecil complaining that she could not understand just how it was he wanted Janet to pose.

Whereat she handed him a piece of chalk and he made a sketch of Janet as exquisite as the morning and rubbed his hands of the charcoal and left it there! It's only worth a hundred pounds! Can you imagine the nerve of Cecil.

I was so shocked I could only gasp.

But, he was quite charming and begged her to call him next time she got in a scrape, and gave her his private telephone number.
Fancy having Sargent waiting to be called up to make sketches for you.
I left Janet and Cecil giggling with happiness.
