Mr. Pendleton reminded me a little of you, Daddy, as you were twenty years ago.
You see I know you intimately, even if we haven't ever met!
He's tall and thinnish with a dark face all over lines, and the funniest underneath smile that never quite comes through but just wrinkles up the corners of his mouth.
And he has a way of making you feel right off as though you'd known him a long time. He's very companionable.
We walked all over the campus from the quadrangle to the athletic grounds; then he said he felt weak and must have some tea.
He proposed that we go to College Inn— it's just off the campus by the pine walk.
I said we ought to go back for Julia and Sallie, but he said he didn't like to have his nieces drink too much tea; it made them nervous.
So we just ran away and had tea and muffins and marmalade and ice-cream and cake at a nice little table out on the balcony.
The inn was quite conveniently empty, this being the end of the month and allowances low. We had the jolliest time!
But he had to run for his train the minute he got back and he barely saw Julia at all.
She was furious with me for taking him off; it seems he's an unusually rich and desirable uncle.
It relieved my mind to find he was rich, for the tea and things cost sixty cents apiece.
This morning (it's Monday now) three boxes of chocolates came by express for Julia and Sallie and me.
What do you think of that? To be getting candy from a man! I begin to feel like a girl instead of a foundling.=
I wish you'd come and have tea some day and let me see if I like you. But wouldn't it be dreadful if I didn't? However, I know I should.
Bien! I make you my compliments. 'Jamais je ne t'oublierai.' Judy
PS. I looked in the glass this morning and found a perfectly new dimple that I'd never seen before.
It's very curious. Where do you suppose it came from?
