New Tobk, Thursday, August 14th. Grant, I cant realize it! An hour ago you were a name to me, a provocative name I admit, for Sam has drawn some alluring pictures of you and has hinted of your charm for women, but, after all, you were only a name. And now, if you were to go out of my life I should not wish to live. I realize and it is much that I can realize anything over this clamor of pounding heart and drumming nerves that even now, were I for some inconceivable reason never to see you again, I have had more of that rapturous romance which all women crave than comes ordinarily into a lifetime of living.
