Conger Reynolds correspondence, March 1-17, 1918

you see behind that expression, and how would you interpret it? 
While you are brushing you hair and thinking about it. I'll analyze it for you. I have assumed a very serious, tragic expression, as one who thinks, "I must not forget those peanuts!" Am I right? Probably not. 
I'm glad you heard from the Coulons. I sent them two letters for you They've probably had them framed by this time, but I hope you get them. It will be lovely for you to see your friends over there. Don't forget to tell the Coulons to keep a light burning in the window for me. I'm coming when the ice breaks up. I suppose if I were with you, you'd wake up some night and say "Why Marie! When did you come." You needn't try that heaven stuff with me, old dear. Even in your most feverish dreams your imagination couldn't do that much for you. You'll never escape that joke, and I shall hold it over your head every time I want a new country home or limmersine
