The Vaughns hope to meet us inRome next winter, and I shall be dreadfully disappointedif they don’t, for Grace and I are great friends, and theboys very nice fellows, especially Fred.Well, we were hardly settled here, when he turned upagain, saying he had come for a holiday, and was going toSwitzerland. Aunt looked sober at first, but he was so coolabout it she couldn’t say a word. And now we get onnicely, and are very glad he came, for he speaks Frenchlike a native, and I don’t know what we should dowithout him. Uncle doesn’t know ten words, and insistson talking English very loud, as if it would make peopleunderstand him. Aunt’s pronunciation is old-fashioned,and Flo and I, though we flattered ourselves that we knewa good deal, find we don’t, and are very grateful to haveFred do the ‘parley vooing’, as Uncle calls it.Such delightful times as we are having!
