Thinking of you, dear Catherine, would soon come to the understanding of what I write you in anagram of my visits with a clergyman on the parishioners. As we were walking along, talking about the good deeds of Florence Nightingale, we suddenly met a crowd around the astronomer. Asking him if it was a radical reform, he said, “Demonstration,” and that he was holding his breath watching the moon shining up with sapolio and trying to enlighten the potentates of different countries. We did not take much stock in their funeral or revolution. Two lawyers came up to us and said, “We don’t see much wealth in this.” We had never sympathized with the doctrines of transubstantiation. Our first call was on a popular authoress, who had just returned from an orchestra concert. We had a pleasant call, and as we came out we saw a surgeon and Dr. Chamberlain driving at full speed. In great consternation we followed them, and found James Stuart hurt by the cars. When the excitement was over, we were impatient to return home, so that ended our visits to the parishioners. |
