| CONTENT DESCRIPTION | |||
| Abstract | Fully appreciates the extent of the victory gained and the possible consequences thereof. Does not exult however over it, as war is so uncertain. Is always careful not to appear presumptuous or overconfident lest fortune might change. Kind inquires about Mme. Brillon from nearly every person he meets. No longer covets his neighbor's (M. Brillon's) house, but still covets his neighbor's wife. Dined at Chaillot this Christmas day. Weather was mild and balmy, could not be finer at Nice. | ||
