helen

you were so sweet, i loved you dearest grandma!

tell me about your mother ruth balsy stephens.  and dexter.

tell me of alexander stephens.

tell me of the wars.

i am so sorry i came so late in your life.  i wish we had more time together.

thank you for loving ransom.

stephen was a good father.  you would love how much he knew about all his wonderful books.

he was a scholar.
not of money, but of ideas.

i remember the last time i saw you, on the chesapeake; you wore red.

thank you for the trinkets you left for me!  they were so fine!
