Dear Father,
 
Have just come home from Isabel's wedding and since it seems so nice and easy I think I will follow her example that is providing I get the chance. The whole Smith family were there and as soon as they found out who I was and who my relations were they were great friends. They all said they knew you and Peter said he had stayed at the Gore once with Grandfather. Isabel and Allan and the McCoys are all going to live together and I think they have one of the nicest flats that I was ever in.

Do you remember me telling me of a Mr. Blair from Three Rivers I had met. Lately he has taken me to the theatre several times and when I was at the wedding he came up to see me and saw me off on the train this morning.

When I told mother a while ago that I was going to invite two girls out for a while she suggested that I had better ask some men. So we have been bothering her and telling her she is anxious to get rid of us.

I supposed mother has given you most of the news there will be none left for me.

Lovingly, Marion
