CHAPTER VII
44/67

I wrote exactly what he told me to write, and I did not add a word.

He has found again his kie (key), and he wears it suspended to his neck by a blue riband, with the Duchess's little seal.

He felt deeply the attention you had to have an _L_ engraved on each tool, and after his letter was closed he charged me to thank you for it, and to tell you that it gave him great pleasure.

An _iron spade_ was the greatest object of his ambition, and he worked so hard yesterday with it, that I feared he would hurt himself with the exertion.

He will go to-day to the races with us, in the Scotch dress which the Duchess had the kindness to send him.
