There is a wedding invitation here for the daughter of 
John Warren Aldrich to Charles Littleton Hanson on June 13 
I_have written to say that you are out of town. If you will 
give me an idea of who it is I will send them a gift. ^It can 
easily wait until you return if you would rather.) Mrs. Pearson 
thinks it is the Aldrich at the lastitution but we do not know 
if the Hanson is related to Slisha. 
Marvel has been quite ill. She has not been able to get over 
the flu apparently and is going to have those teeth removed 
which have been bothering her. She should then be much better. 
Jack and I had a lovely dinner with Mrs. Grossvenor. Melville 
and his wife and Gloria and her husband and Lillian were there 
It was a small group and v/e had a very nice evening. Mr. G. 
didn’t return from the North Pole in time for dinner! Anoarently 
he had a wonderful trip. There have been several articles about 
his trip in the paper. 
I will go to the AAA tomorrow and cancel the policy and membership 
in Mothers name. The bill came today and it coiniCSstded with 
my selling the car perfectly. You will get a refund on the 
tags of half a year. I have the application and you can send 
it in when you return. 
Washington is in a fine state of flap with appropriations being 
cut like mad and everyone sure they are going to"lose their job. 
I am. so glad that you are having an interesting time. I hope 
it cotinues to be so. I had a very nice letter from Mrs. Donnelly 
in Caracas and in the course of it she hoped that I would come 
down with you next Winter-so the Phelps are apparently planning 
and talking of your trip already. I would love to go to 
South America^^ and I would love to see her again. I hope you 
will meet themwthey are both wonderful people. 
Sell I guess that is all the trivia I can think of for now. 
Jack sends his regards. Do write us often.
