so I went nearly tyo Art Quanbury's with him and got a ride back with Om & Mrs Lambert in a bob-sleigh. I was sta=nding in the road wile they came up to me watching Quint through tyhe gully and informewd me that the "woman" was nwervous as she thought I meant mischief. While we wer eover home Marj. norrowed "Black House" from Dad. as she thinks a review of the case of Jarndyce 7 Jarndyce & the doings of thre Court of Chancery will be encouraging to us just now. Dad. let me have. aletter that he got from Mr. Parks to-day asking me to write him and instruct him to appoint a guardian for Harry B. as he will now have to be represented in the proceedings. In another letter he tolsd dad that if ther fund should go to Harr B which he said "Heaven forbid," His guardian would supply hi with apple finds for his eductauon until he became of age and that would hekp out a little bit I sincerely hope tings won;t turn out that way for Harry B's own sake as well as ours as the thought ofhim coming in for an enormous fortine when he was 21 years old with no one else having any legal control over it or him wouldbe so awfulbug-bear to me. However I am not worrying about it yet. Very mild and cloudy all day.
