OF course | really do care lot for
him, but | thought | was too young
to be engaged. Do you think it would
be all right to be engaged TO this
young man or not?
My mother and father seem to

son they like him because he stays
at my house in the evenings and
seems to take pleasure in talking TO
my mother and father a great deal.
Shall | do as he wishes?
