- Two letters are written to Blanche Nutting from Margo. They are both undated, the second one begins with Later. For the first letter Margo discusses some correspondences of Blanche's and that she tried to come to Blanche's commencement but not being allowed to go and that she has a hard enough time being allowed to travel to Hanover and that she is only allowed to because her father and brothers went to Dartmouth. She then goes on about a friend's engagement and how everyone around her is engaged or in love but not her. She asks Blanche "Where is your picture?" In a previous letter believed to be by Margo she had asked for Blanche's photograph. She continues this first letter talking about how much fun her and Blnache will have that summer and that Elner has been writing more often than usual and that "he is a peach, a dear ande everything nice!" In the second letter she states she has received Blanche's invitation to her commencement and she wished she had known it was on the weekend but she has already made other plans and hopes Blanche will forgive her for not attending. The envelope is postmarked 1918 April 22.
