Winter

The new year unfolds eventfully, with love and loss at every turn. One must sympathize when one's connections experience unhappiness. Certain gentlemen as of late have become engaged, whilst another has quit correspondence altogether. Perhaps it would be wisdom to obtain such friends as kittens or puppies, which will certainly not forget nor desert their beloved masters.

Charlotte and Anne have taken up residence in the land northwards, and I rather feel how (historical) Anne must have when (historical) Charlotte and (historical) I went to the Continent without her. There is yet hope that we may be reunited again, if not only for weekends, perhaps someday for a longer period.
