Woman With A Message

March 11, 1912

From 8-year old Hilda’s diary:

Suzanne was here for lunch today and she told me a big secret. She told me she was going to marry Mr. Leonard. I’m ever so pleased and now I can tell Tante Esther that because once I heard Tante Esther say that Suzanne will never get married. That married men don’t marry girls like that. I don’t know why not? Suzanne is so beautiful and a prima ballerina and Tante Esther is ugly and old and blind but she had a husband. Maybe he was blind too.
