My dear Friend,
It gives me great pleasure to introduce to you my friend, Mr. Alpheus Crane. Any attention you may be able to show him I shall esteem as a personal favor. Sincerely yours, Peter Cooper.] A LETTER OF FRIENDSHIP. [Cursive: 21 Dean St., Toledo, Ohio. Dec. 16, 1887. My dear Mother, I cannot tell you how I long to be at home again and in my old place. In my dreams and in my waking hours, I am often back at the old homestead; my thoughts play truant while I pore over my books, and even while I listen to my teacher in the class-room. I would give so much to know what you are all doing--so much to feel that now and then I am in your thoughts, and that you do indeed miss me at home. Everything here is as pleasant as it need be or can be, I suppose. I am sure I shall enjoy it all by and by, when I get over this fit of homesickness. My studies are not too hard, and my teachers are kind and faithful. |
