Letter from Grace E. Hall to Clarence Edmonds Hemingway

69

is coming up on Sunday afternoon. Tomorrow night is our Rubinstein Concert Mrs. [Hulbert?] and I are placed beside each other on the platform in the second row. I have just had a delightful call from a Miss [Lathrop?], who is a fine concert singer + speaks all languages. She invited me to go with her to the next meeting of the Manuscript Club a week from tomorrow night.

It is one of the first Musical Clubs of the city, composed entirely of composers who each in turn lead the orchestra and give their own compositions before they are published. Now I must say goodnight. Give my love to everybody -- Faithfully Yours

Grace Ernestine Hall
