"Some letters are a good deal more suggestive than others in expressing nostalgia for nights spent with a close friend. Virgil Macy, who lived in Smithfield, Rhode Island, assured his 'chum' William Blanding in Rehoboth, Massachusetts, that he missed sleeping with him: 'Sometimes,' he wrote, 'I think I have got hold of your doodle when in reality I have hold of the bedpost.' "
