Gregory,
Father is quite insisting that all we girlsââ¬âsave Cordy, who has work and an engagement on her sideââ¬âattend Cousin Bennetââ¬â¢s (how strange I feel calling him that; I have only met him a handful of times!) engagement party on Wednesday. True to form, he thinks it best we mingle with The Noteworthies; even if we canââ¬â¢t get a husband out of it, I overheard him saying, at least weââ¬â¢ll be out and about.
Needless to say, I am hardly thrilled. While I do hear that this Miss Browne is taller even than I am, I should find an engagement party quite without mirth regardless. Please say you will come to lessen my burden? I suspect it goes without saying that Father will not be moved on the topic.
Fondly,
Desdemona
