June  19,1923, 
Bear  Ur,  Beane: 
Your  good  letter  of  the  27th  ult. 
was  forwarded  and  I  have  intended  answering  it  in 
time  to  greet  you  on  your  arrival  at  Shelburne, 
Boubtless  you  have  beaten  me  to  it,  the  reason 
being  that  nothing  has  happened  precisely  as  I 
expected.  Mrs, Foster  was  quite  ill  shortly  before 
we  left  Chicago  and  we  came  on  here  in  the  hope 
that  the  change  would  do  her  good.  It  appears  now 
that  a  better  plan  would  have  been  a  trip  to  the 
Battle  Creek  Sanitarium,  She  has  not  improved  to 
the  extent  expected  and  I  cannot  leave  her  when 
my  summer  duty  requires  my  return  to  Chicago, which 
at  latest  is  three  weeks  hence.  So  we  have  decided 
io  go  to  Battle  Creek,  and  leave  here  day  after 
tomorrow.  Her  trouble  seems  to  be  one  of  those 
vicious  circles  which  calls  for  rest  and  the  many 
resources  of  sanitarium  treatment.  There  is  a  fine 
doctor  here  and  we  have  no  reason  to  complain  of 
his  treatment,  but  other  conditions? Witch  would 
have  been  ideal  if  Mrs. Foster  were  even  as  well  as 
last  summer Jhave  not  been  Just  the  thing, 
and  this  move  -  as  we  say  in  chess  -  is  "forced''.
