It is said that the road to Satan's Dominions is paved with good intentions, and I have no doubt many an acre is covered with mine. It is the better part now to make the most of a bad bargain, and put the best face on it. You never say anything about Willie William Sergeant, Mrs. Meade's brother. in your letters.
