Dear Daddy-Long-Legs,

Happy day! I've just finished my last examination Physiology. 

And now: Three months on a farm! I don't know what kind of a thing a farm is. I've never been on one in my life. 

I've never even looked at one (except from the car window), but I know I'm going to love it, and I'm going to love being FREE.

I am not used even yet to being outside the John Grier Home. Whenever I think of it excited little thrills chase up and down my back. 

I feel as though I must run faster and faster and keep looking over my shoulder to make sure that Mrs. Lippett isn't after me with her arm stretched out to grab me back.

I don't have to mind any one this summer, do I? Your nominal authority doesn't annoy me in the least; you are too far away to do any harm. 

Mrs. Lippett is dead for ever, so far as I am concerned, and the Semples aren't expected to overlook my moral welfare, are they? 

No, I am sure not. I am entirely grown up. Hooray!

I leave you now to pack a trunk, and three boxes of teakettles and dishes and sofa cushions and books.

Yours ever, Judy

PS. Here is my physiology exam. Do you think you could have passed?
