Creator
S.R. Crockett
Description
Came home to diplomatic accumulation of work (publishers like political problems won't cease troubling); delighted seeing Rosebery and family; only sorrow not talking to girls (has Sweetheart of own, will hear when LP arrives); saw Covenant with divine right scoundrel signature with more reverence, awe, stirring of heart than any parchment or paper; will always remember Rosebery's words that Covenanters part of history stirred him most deeply; that's true Scot, none but true Scot can feel it; been 'lying hard' all day but Yankee papers say 'above statements may be relied upon'
