29 July, 1888
Flora,If you feel it is best, I will leave Claire alone. I imagine she has enough friends plus her sister that she will not notice I have stopped talking to her. And you are right, Flora, I did not think about those who could have seen me with Ms. Benet. At least my governess found us and we went to the toy store instead. If we had actually gone into the Hog's Head Mother would have had an apoplectic fit.
Hopefully still your friend,
Arya
