Letter: Nancy Bancroft to Margaret Moore Bancroft, November 29, 1920

Dearest Mother, I'm so homesick this morning, it's pathetic. I feel as if I'd just been home without really having seen you all. Company is very unsatisfactory, don't you think. Ag, the adaptable kind, is O.K. but everybody can't be like Ag I guess. Nevermind we'll

have a nice long Xmas vacation. I feel so selfish being up here, Mother, when I might be home, helping you. I could run the house while you ran the business end of it and then we'd both have spare time and we'd be together but as thee says that's a stationary job.

There were several letters

love nancy Betty & Don & others were on our train, no chairs!

waiting for me and my Yale Record. A letter from Luce was quite the most unreserved and sincere I have ever had from her. I am quite crazy about her as per usual.

Only seventeen more days ma mere! Won't it be great. I don't believe I ever looked forward to my holiday more. Don't you love our new dress

Are you sure it wasn't beyond us financially? I made a good start on my lessons, for I realize that when I shirk on my work I'm unhappy and discontented. I have on my black sweater and feel very chic even though it is yet sleeveless. The N. Y. Times continues to come though I have paid only $2 on it since I came. Bootlick. Tell Boots how sorry we were not to say goodbye - we meant to go to meeting. Betty &
