JORDAN, DAVID STARR Oct 7 1910
October 7, 1910
My dear Mrs. Sewall:
Your kind letter met me at Southampton.
I shall spend a very few days in New York and Boston before going back to California, and I shall not have time to go to Maine in that period.
Later I shall be in Boston about November 20, to spend a month there and in Ottawa on my International Commission.
On board of Peace

Trustees meet to organize on Nov. 29, and at that time the functions of work will be formally chores.
I imagine that those gentlemen will want to go slowly, as then an many propention before them and I do not suppose that for the first year any people not now on the payroll will be taken on. This I give no as my view but as a diagnosis of probabilities. At the same time I keep your wishes in mind, to be carefully considered by my colleagues when the time comes.
Sincerely yours
David Starr Jordan
