Dear Daddy, 
I have put off writing to you thinking that you would have 
an address soon and today your letter arrived from Sona,Veraguas 
so I am writing you the news. 
Everything seems to he suddenly falling into place. After I left 
you at the air port I returned to Georgetown and called the 
garrage to come for the Ford. The battery was gone so had them 
recharge it. Next week in the middle ^f an awful storm it went 
again.'This time I called the Ford garage and found that the 
voltage control had gone b8,d so had to have it fixed. The 
new car has been delayed because of a strike at the Ford works 
but I finally settled all the business on it yesterday and 
am now driving a very snappy green wagon. Due to the strike 
I was unable to get an autimatic gear shift but am not too 
distressed about it as I wasn’t pining for one anyway- I also 
saved $200. ' 
Also the same Sat. I took you to the plane we settled the de al 
on the house near Congressional Country Club in a most advanlA^fiffllS 
manner and now I am scurryibg around like mad getting ready to 
move. I am settling the house on June 12 and we hope to move 
June 15. They let me select my own decorating scheme since it 
was not yet complete so I have been very busy going back and 
forth each day to check on colors etc. 
I am most anxious for you to see it. I think you will approve. 
It was our conversation the morning you left that convinced 
me that I might as well go ahead with it. I hope we have not 
bit off more than we can chew but time will tell and it is 
a good enough buy that I can dispose of it if I have to(_at a 
profit probably and certainly not at a loss^ Tim Hanson is^ 
going with us to the settlement to be sure the papers are in 
order. 
I have regretted several invitationgt.^^among them one to the 
annual'’Hog Killin’” party. I have paid all the bills so far 
and your clothes are all back from the laundry and cleaning. 
Alberta is doing very well. Between us we persuaded her husband 
Adolph to cu-ythe grass. ¥e have had such very damp muggy 
weather that it has been a job. 
There is a letter and a proof for you^ to correct from the 
Who’s Who here. I asked Mrs. Pearson and she and I agreed that 
since tbTere had been several changes this past year that you 
should check on it yourself and since your records on such things 
are here I have written to them to say you are away until 
July 1 and will answer them at that time and that If their 
publishing date is before then they should let me know. If 
you wish she can probably tend to it for you. I would send it 
to you but it might get lost then we would have to get another.
