The rest of the day he spends with the ushers, as I am so frightfully busy that I am nowhere long enough for Skip to have any real satisfaction in my companionship. Poor Jack has never come home.

ugh it the very last evening. Both Skip and Jack have welcomed Mother back with frantic joy, and this morning came in and lay on her bed as soon as she had finished breakfast--for she did not come down to either breakfast or lunch, as she is going to spend the night at Baltimore with the Bonapartes. I was so interested in your reading "Phineas Finn" that I ordered a copy myself. I have also ordered DeQuincey's works, as I find we have not got them at the White House. . . . . . SORROWS OF SKIP White House, April 1, 1906. DARLING ARCHIE: Poor Skip is a very, very lonely little dog without his family. Each morning he comes up to see me at breakfast time and during most of breakfast (which I take in the hall just outside my room) Skip stands with his little paws on my lap. Then when I get through and sit down in the rocking-chair to read for fifteen or twenty minutes, Skip hops into my lap and stays there, just bathing himself in the companionship of the only one of his family he has left.  WE JUST GOT THROUGH IT THE VERY LAST EVENING BOTH SKIP AND JACK HAVE WELCOMED MOTHER BACK WITH FRANTIC JOY AND THIS MORNING CAME IN AND LAY ON HER BED AS SOON AS SHE HAD FINISHED BREAKFAST FOR SHE DID NOT COME DOWN TO EITHER BREAKFAST OR LUNCH AS SHE IS GOING TO SPEND THE NIGHT AT BALTIMORE WITH THE BONAPARTES I WAS SO INTERESTED IN YOUR READING PHINEAS FINN THAT I ORDERED A COPY MYSELF I HAVE ALSO ORDERED TO QUINCEY'S WORKS AS I FIND WE HAVE NOT GOT THEM AT THE WHITE HOUSE SORROWS OF SKIP WHITE HOUSE APRIL FIRST NINETEEN O SIX DARLING ARCHIE POOR SKIP IS A VERY VERY LONELY LITTLE DOG WITHOUT HIS FAMILY EACH MORNING HE COMES UP TO SEE ME AT BREAKFAST TIME AND DURING MOST OF BREAKFAST WHICH I TAKE IN THE HALL JUST OUTSIDE MY ROOM SKIP STANDS WITH HIS LITTLE PAWS ON MY LAP THEN WHEN I GET THROUGH AND SIT DOWN IN THE ROCKING CHAIR TO READ FOR FIFTEEN OR TWENTY MINUTES SKIP HOPS INTO MY LAP AND STAYS THERE JUST BATHING HIMSELF IN THE COMPANIONSHIP OF THE ONLY ONE OF HIS FAMILY HE HAS LEFT
