Still later' : 4 



(This letter is something like those continued -in-our-next- 

 dispatches that one sees in the city papers that issue a half-dozen . 

 editions daily. I shall conclude it this tine. J 



Of course just now I can hardly think of anvthi.. G but the possi- 

 bility of coming to Cambridge. You may well believe that the prospect 

 of having all my time to work at the plants is a glittering one and 

 tempts me strongly. If I can get a living salary I shall probably ac- 

 cept. But I am afraid that I can't live in Cambridge on less than 

 $3000 wit tout uncomfortably pinching. Give me your honest opinion on 

 the subject and your experience if vouwil.3. We have n't any lux- 

 urious habits, but we want to have enough and good enough for comfort. 



— Well, I wont bore you any further with this subject. 



I have taken up tennis again this summer and am getting much of 

 my recreation in that way. For with all my busy-ness t do not propose 

 to break down my health if I can help it. The University courts ad- 

 join our lot almost so that it is very convenient to go out after tea 

 and take a round. - Fishing has been good too this summer, but I have 

 been out little. Either the days were poor or worjc interfered. Last 

 Sunday was the best fishing day of the season so f;lr--an overcast sky 

 with a gentle south wind. Then, to meet a man as il came home from 

 church, carrying a 10-lb .pickerel ,was just a little (too much?/ there a»C> 

 drawbacks , you see, to being a Presbyterian elder. 



Another call. We'll say quits this time. Drop me a line if 



you can^at once^and help me to settle my problem, with warmest re- 

 gards to yourself and Mrs.Deane, Faithfully yours,
