Dear Aunt Madge and All the NJ. BIS
DO we realize that spring is here
and March on it's last half? Such a
lovely winter! There is no need for
people going to a warmer cline. The

come back and are repairing their
nest in the apple trees. ! do not
know where they go. but they went
before the apples We're gatherd.
Now, "Vashti." pardon me for my
silly mistake at Christmas time. l
received a nice letter from Mrs. Edith
Robbins of Sargentville. l had never
known her personally, only through
correspondence acquaintance. In
her letter she spoke of "Vashti." and
received the impression it was her
pen name. l hope you do not have
any i'll will against me, for | have

 Submits "ExpIanation"
 q never saw Lacy the day he ab- seconded from Montgomery He did not give or convey to me on that day or any other q. check for q suit case or any other kind of baggage or package.

Several heavy remittances due the department were expected daily. The request was for all we could furnish at a near date. I gave La cey checks in blank with instrdcti ons to turn over all he could at the time appointed. On another occasion, when I was called to Washington, I made. similar provisions. l had full confidence In Lacey, who handled all the finances Of the department, made all the deposits and disbursements, and accept full responsibility for this
