Dear Dr. Robinson; 
The small camera came a few days apo and I 
took It to look over carefully before havlnp it sent you. 
I discovered a portion of it that was out of proper adjustment 
and called the attntion of the spent here to it. He sold it 
was someth!np that he could probably fix in a few minutes 
himself, but thought the better plan would be to send it back 
to the factory to be readjusted. This he has done. He said 
that he did not want a camera to po out of his place unless 
he felt sure it was all ripht in all respects. I heartily 
apreed with him. 
This will mean a Aelfry that none of us had figured on, 
but I think you agree that it was wiser to return it to the 
factory than to try to repair it, or havlnp it repaired here 
in Providence. Am sorry for the dalgey. 
I may be out of town more or less between now 1 and Jan. 1. 
I am now havlnp a vacation. 'lail addressed as usual will be 
forwarded, however. 
Very truly yours,
