Letter 5- misunderstandings inherent in letters Written by Carolyn Ruth (8/30/2005 9:24 a.m.)

Good Morning! I am 'excessively diverted' by the ambiguity in the first paragraph of the fifth letter. I actually was trying to picture how Lady Bridges could play and dance simultaneously. To have JA then point out the misunderstanding was like having a real one-to-one communication with her. And her commentary on it is so funny: "which if not impossible must appear a very improbable event to you." LOL.
