Ford, Paul Leicester, 1865-1902

"The Honorable Peter Stirling and What People Thought of Him"

Would it be right to give something of
that kind?
Faithfully yours,
PETER.
DEAR MISS PIERCE:
A letter from Watts this morning tells me of his good fortune.
Fearing lest my blindness may perhaps still give you pain, I write
to say that your happiness is the most earnest wish of my life,
and nothing which increases it can be other than good news to me.
If I can ever serve you in any way, you will be doing me a great
favor by telling me how.
Please give my regards to Mr. and Mrs. Pierce, and believe me,
Yours ever sincerely,
PETER STIRLING.
After these letters were written, Peter studied the wall again for a
time. Studied it till long after the hour when he should have lunched.
The wall had three cracks in it which approximated to an outline of
Italy, but though Peter gazed at this particular wall a good many hours
in the next few weeks, he did not discover this interesting fact till
long after this time of wall-gazing.
