Abstract

A letter from Albert Hafner to his fiancée Elizabeth Chandler in Massachusetts. He complains that he cannot tune out the sound of the Methodist church music nearby and says the congregation sings horribly. He then recounts some gossip he overheard outside, including ladies who criticized him for sailing on Sundays and rumored that Hafner only said he was getting married as a scheme to sell more stock. He closes the letter by describing a lovely image of himself and Chandler and sends her his love.
