Could you (in deepest confidence) tell me the nature of the cramping
influences? I ask because I can help
the boy a lot—he catches a hint as a good dog catches a
scent. He is not self-conscious, and he is not vain. (He entirely forgets
himself when he is interested.)
If you give me a tip it will help me when I see him next winter.
I shall be here for a month at least.
