Some more presents and
some more French today.
Lieut. Chamberlain gave
me a beautiful place holder +
paper cutter, a sly poke at my
wonderfully studious manners, I suppose.
Also a beautiful knife. Mean to have
it marked + L’s, too.
Took a affidavit in French
today. What will Genl. Dix say?
Clothing Invoices from 4th. N.Y.C.
arrived today, 16¢ due. O.K.
