Letters of Two Brides

MME. DE L'ESTORADE TO MLLE. DE CHAULIEU

La Crampade.

Your Spaniard and you make me shudder, my darling. I write this line

to beg of you to dismiss him. All that you say of him corresponds with

the character of those dangerous adventurers who, having nothing to

lose, will take any risk.

This man cannot be your husband, and must

not be your lover. I will write to you more fully about the inner

history of my married life when my heart is free from the anxiety your

last letter has roused in it.
