Dear Doc: 
Greetings, salutations and salvations. How's 
the "Crustaceas" coming? 
Everything is coming along fine on the "Tub" 
especially in the wireless room. Believe that at last 
they are going to do right by "their Nell". The Skipper 
let" about half of the crew go upon arrival here and 
the other half are off on vacation. Among those who 
got the ax were Hawkins, Erickson, Stanley Nelson, 
Skagen, Lindh, the Swedish Song Bird, and a few others. 
The Skippers address is (residence) 4 LaMarcus 
Avenue, Glen Cove, Long Island, N. Y. (business) % 
Joseph Conrad, 5yfe's Ship Yard, Glenwood Landing, Long 
Island, N, Y. ‘ Mr. Hartford told him that you wanted 
his address, and since I'm not getting my vacation 
for some time my address will be the same as his, that 
is, if you're gonna send me those pictures. 
Sincerely hope that you found everything running 
smoothly at home, and that you and yours are enjoying 
the best of everything. 
With very best regards, 
Yours truly
