 Description: I must add a few lines more to you my own dear friend. Hal has told me all. Do you imagine that those things would deter me from having the same feelings which I other= wise would have? Far from it, dearest Addie; my mind is not so prejudiced by contact with the world, as to make me think that the misdemeanors of one member of a family should detract from the merit of an- other. My own experience teaches me better. On the contrary, I love you better than ever. Do not think me presumptious. Addie if I say I love you. Do not discard me from your thoughts. I will try to make myself worthy of your love. Do I speak too assured? Hallie assures me that he has not the least object= ion to our correspondence, and leaves me to act as I see proper. With you, now rests my happiness Shall I be happy or the reverse? Do you ask me to wait until you become better acquainted with me? I do not ask or expect that on so short acquaintance you shall decide forever.
