Mr. Walter Deane, 



29 Brewster Street, 



Cambridge, Massachusetts, 

 lily dear Deane; 



I have been hoping to write to you to tell you that 

 I am going to South America once more; but you can well understand 

 that I have had very little time at my disposal. 7! sail on the 

 Red "D" Line G. S. CARACAS Wednesday at one p. m. , stopping first 

 at Porto Rico, then at Curacao, at both places only for short times 

 and then on to Caracas, y/hich will be our base. Letters addressed 

 to us care of the American Consul, Caracas, Venezuela, will reach 

 us . 



Very truly yours, 



■{«• Mrs. Rose and I.
