Dear Doctor Wetmore s 
I was much interested in your letter to Ravenel, and glad things 
are going so well. We all admired your method of repairing automobiles. 
I called Mrs. Wetmore Sunday. She is getting on nicely. 
Mrs. Abbot has chronic sore throat and had some fever but is now 
improving. 
Mrs. Walcott returned yesterday. She seems much better. 
The Secretary situation continues to afford amusement. Cattell 
has now gotten out a straw vote project. I think he has sent ballots to 
many if not all members of the American Association. Also the chemical 
organization of which Treat B. Johnson is president has nominated,through 
its Council, Cottrell and Alsberg. 
Baseball began yesterday in beautiful weather. 
Yours sincerely, 
Dr. Alexander Wetmore, 
c/o Mr. Maurice P. Dunlap, United States Consul, 
Port au Prince, Haiti.
