A letter from Albert Hafner to his fiancée Elizabeth Chandler in Massachusetts. He excitedly announces new stamps he has found for her young Family member Winthrop. He then thanks Chandler for a Calendula blossom she sent him. Hafner contemplates the value in marrying young versus marrying later in life. He answers Chandler's question about his mother's approval of his decisions. Hafner then enters a long argument for wearing knee-length breeches as opposed to trousers. He tells Chandler their relationship is in no means an entrapment, as a real man would never need to trap a woman into marrying him and having his children. Comparatively, though, he considers that love itself might be called a trap, but one he willingly enters. He closes by updating Chandler on the well-being of the sick guests in the hotel and the stifling heat that is coming to an end.
