Those to her mother contained little else than that they were just returned from the library, where such and such officers had attended them, and where she had seen such beautiful ornaments as made her quite wild; that she had a new gown, or a new parasol, which she would have described more fully, but was obliged to leave off in a violent hurry, as Mrs. Forster called her, and they were going off to the camp; and from her correspondence with her sister, there was still less to be learnt--for her letters to Kitty, though rather longer, were much too full of lines under the words to be made public.
Celles qu’elle adressait a sa mere contenaient peu de chose : elle revenait avec son amie de la bibliotheque ou elle avait rencontré tel ou tel officier ; elle avait vu des toilettes qui l’avaient transportée d’admiration ; elle-meme avait acheté une robe et une ombrelle dont elle aurait voulu envoyer la description mais elle devait terminer sa lettre en toute hâte parce qu’elle entendait Mrs. Forster qui l’appelait pour se rendre avec elle au camp.
