THE BERKELEY GYMNASIUM FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN. CARNEGIE HALL. OFFICE HOURS: 10—12:30 2.30—4 SATURDAY TILL NOON Dr. Mary Taylor Bissell, Medical Director Dr. Mathilda K. Wallin, Associate Medical Director Miss Delia M. Elliott, Gymnasium Director New York, Feb. 2nd, 1898 My Own Darling, Your note from the hospital I just received and I am concerned indeed for you. I hope you will let me know at once if I can help you in any possible way—I will put anything else aside if I can do something for you or your mother. If I may call on you, let me know and I will, and if you can get in here please come. I am anxious to know more. I am
Very sorry darling - I don't like any trouble coming to you. Get our help Lynn, and tell us more that I may know just how things stand. I will write again today later. I shall be in town tonight at Miss Lawrence's. I shall be at the gym all day tomorrow - even at lunch time. I think I shall deliver this myself at 77 Park Ave, on the chance of seeing you; but do not expect to see me if you prefer not. Lovingly yours, Daisy P.S. I shall be at the gym this evening at 8 o'clock for about an hour.
superfluous, because I saw today how you were working and that Lynn plan is good. There is a Brochure as soon as your mother is ready to look at the pictures. I cannot help thinking how dear you were today; I wanted to put my arms around you but am willing not to but to substitute anything that will help you know—that I shall watch for. Perhaps you can get down to the Chantry your morning for nine o'clock service—it is lovely. Good night lovingly yours Daisy. Thursday, My dear Love, can you stand two of me day? I guess you can, or I wouldn't write. If you were perfectly sweet & come to see me today and I appreciate it I can tell you, under the circumstances. My darling, you don't know what a wish you are; I simply admire what I saw in you today—you still for me I love, and I know I do that. You have enough now to think of and I won't allow you to consider me as you seemed today that you did; you have gotten me on my feet. Now I'm the one to look after you. You have
made me believe in your love, you never made it more evident than today—and now I am willing to let it abide till you again have time for me. I am so confident of your faithfulness that I am not afraid to wait, for I know you won't fail me ever. If my orders are dropped from your mind as far as any worry goes, only let me be there when I can help you. It isn't a case of fast and loose between you and me—it's all fast because the trust is secure. I shall see you when you can, and be perfectly satisfied. When I propose a thing that isn't just what you can fall into easily, simply say no without troubling to explain why. I am glad you told me about your mother, and am very thankful it isn't worse as my mother was. Take good care of yourself now so that you can take good care of her later. This is needless advice—rather
