but will ask him when next I do. Francis is back with us thank God, Will[?] & Pit, & he & Rossie & I am altogether thus trip[?] & throughly enjoying ourselves; Rossies is a great addition to the 29th. I do hope something has turned up for your father, & wonder what reply he sent to Spokane[?]. I would give a gnat [?] to be able to go down there with the same old lot, however with any luck we shall be at it again some day, though we shall always miss poor Johny Isaac.

I fear this is a a-a dull letter Dodie, but commit do better today. Love[?] to yourself.

Im ever

J.J. Fonda.[?]
