We are expecting Wash in
about a week. Add is quite
anxious for Wash and I to go with
them on their wedding tour. They
will be married June 15th and
propose to spend the rest of the
summer sight seeing. I don't
much think I shall go but it
is among the possibilities, and I
know would be a delightful trip.

Thanks for the picture. It is
one of the best you ever had, but
I don't think your pictures ever do
you justice. Photographs seldom give
one a perfect idea of the original.

as I am high in office in
the grand lodge of the CP.L.'s I know
that it would be of no use to
present your request. The "lords of
creation" are not allowed the best
part of a membership, and can
only visit the lodge upon public
