No telegram has come yet from C
James Sibley Watson writes to Emily on October 12, 1890, acknowledging her letter of October 5th. He worries that "No telegram has come yet from C. & although his last letters were quite hopeful it seems as though we should have heard more news by this time. Still everything takes time & I suppose he is going ahead very cautiously & does not care to risk anything by being in too great a hurry."
