10th March 1890
Tavie,
Regardless I will bring you some extra sweets of cooks. Im sure she's just dying to dote on you as well, so they're bound to be quite delicious.
You know I completed a few years at Pendergast, so I will talk to mother about it. I'm sure we have ample funds to provide you, me and Henry at Pendergast so it should be an easy talk. Nevertheless, she's eager to hear from you, and I'll let her know to expect letters from you soon.
Everything will work out yes, but you must play your cards right, Tavie. You've heard what's happened to poor Melody. She was so poised to be the belle of the ball and yet see what she's gotten into? I love her so, but in all logic her path is not one I would recommend you follow lest you want to be disowned from the family. Of course, I do not say this as a threat and merely as a warning that I feel obliged to pass onto you. You'll likely hear a harsher version from mother once you get home, and yet another once you've come into Society.
I look forward to our meeting. Papa sends his love as well!
Ever your fond sister,
Di
