At next year's dance, R and I will be married, and able to kiss in public!

Dearest E, am I to infer from your choice of words that yourself and the delightful R have hidden yourselves in some secluded spot and stolen a kiss already ? If so, you are such a naughty girl ! (And I am still quite giddy with excitement that you and R are to be married - and to think he has twenty thousand pounds a year, you shall both live in such luxury !)
