To Members of the Bova Scotia Party 
Headquarters for the summer will be e/o Mrs. Frank Paris, 
Yarmouth, Dova Scotia. 
I have engaged Mrs. Davis’s four ( 4 ) rooms, some with two (£) 
beds and her clean barn with a stove in it for a work-shop. After 
considerable correspondence, this seemed the best I could do as 
Mrs. Davis had the combination of a good house, good barn and four 
available rooms. Dowhere else could I get more than one (1) room at 
a house. The rate is $? a week for each room, 38 with two in a 
room. It is probable that when we arrive and look the grounds over 
we can easily adjust things, because the party will be small and only 
one or two men will be asked to share rooms with others, or other 
rooms can be secured nearby. 
Board is still being negotiated. Probably Mrs. Davis will 
take us on a part time basis so that absences will be cheeked off. 
If not, there are three good restaurants which will simplify the 
eating problem. 
I shall leave Boston Thursday, July 1, from the Porth Station 
at 7 A. M. (eastern standard time, 8 A. M. Massachusetts time) for 
St, John?, Dew Brunswick. All who wish to go with rae on the train 
Wednesday 
should plan to be in Boston on krkdogr to be sure that trunks are 
transferred to the Horth Station and checked, in order that trunks 
may go on together to the border, ticketed ane?/ from Boston to St. 
John, since I have a blanket letter from the Canadian Commissioner 
of Customs passing without trouble the baggage of myself and com¬ 
panions. 
We shall reaeh St. John in the evening, spend the night there 
and go next day, Friday, to Yarmouth by steamer to Jigby, thence 
by rail. Those who wish, can go by the Yarmouth boat directly from
