Since that I have not hated Americans quite so savagely.
The act seemed to have a softening effect on the others, too, for from that time they all have treated me very decently, even the girl with the pompadour.

Oct. 15th, 1——
Life in this "Fashionable Boarding School" is just about a repetition, daily, of what transpired the evening of my arrival. It is not worth recording, so I am closing up my diary until I return to grandmother's. It takes Yick, and Mrs. Yet, and Chauffeur Graham, and Professor Ballington, and even a pinch of Aunt Gwendolin to give a little spice to life.
Thanksgiving
I took a run back to grandmother's for what those Americans call Thanksgiving—It is most amusing to foreigners like me—and Yick.
On grandmother's table there was what they tell me is the regulation dinner for the day—roast turkey and pumpkin pie.
