the verandah of my cottage when I am with three Montreal friends - and I want to finish before the sun leaves me. I cannot make clear how delightful it was to read you ? and charming letter. That limerick of yours was "right up to date" to use an Americanism. Do you make or ? these wonderful phrases of yours. I envy you and can only feebly imitate. Do write me again and it will reach me say at the Ritz Carlton Montreal. I should so wish either that the fates would bring you. East or something else or that I may go West. Can I help with the farmer in any way? [illegible] I should so like to. Many thanks for your kind good wishes and nice things you say and with all the happy messages possible. My [illegible] yours [illegible]

I have not got your home address here so send it to the [illegible].
