LETTER FROM LESLIE PRES
COLT TO RUTH ELLINGTON.
NY DEAR RUTH:


have wished for you all day. AS
you know mother will not be here
until tomorrow and I have been moon
ing around the shops.
I am sending you number of new
ideas in undertakings and negltgees
that think will sell like hotscakes.
l had an engagement this afternoon
at the office of Struble g. Struble.
You know Karl told me to consult
the senior member of the firm, who
is a very charming man of more than
middle age.
Believing that a woman should be
as confidential with her lawyer as
with her doctor, told him the whole
story except that 1 had sold three of
the pearls.
He said he knew Karl had been
collecting these pearls ever since he
was little boy and he congratulated
me upon having them. He looked at
me rather quizzically as he did this.
OF course I made him understand
that 1 had accepted the pearls in per
feet innocence, thinking they were a
string of beads from my sister. 1t
was only when 1 had broken them
and taken them into the city, to have
them restrung that 1 had found how
valuable they were.
l asked him if he thought I had
better send them back to Karl and
he seemed to think that was foolish,
especially as it would entail so many
explanations to Jack
1t was rather a peculiar situation,
Ruth, to be sitting there talking to
an absolutely strange man and re-
ceiving his suggestions upon how to
run my life.
He asked me quite pointedly If my
sister were in England now, and I
told him she was He told me also
that he had had a cable from Karl
telling him to do anything III the
world he could to settle the matter
in the way so there would be no pub
LEFTY.
He seemed to think he could settle
the waiter very easily. I told him
really didn't want Karl to pay out
any more money and that as soon as
he arrived from abroad l should try
and make arrangements to return
him the pearls.
He said that would be the best way
if I returned them at all, but In all
events was not to worry about the

matter. He would take all Of the
responsibility.
He said he would arrange every
thing and 1 came away feeling quite
secure. 1 rather gathered he was go
ing to send some one to you, Ruth,
and between you, you would settle
the matter. He seemed to think you
were very clever in your advice to
me.
I asked no questions about what
he was going to do or how he was
going to do it, but I told him that If
he wished to write me any letters he
was TO send them to you.
I couldn't help thinking, Ruth, of
that old poet who said:
"Oh what a tangled web we weave
When first we practice to deceive"
