Dear Doctor: 
Enclosea you will find a letter of introduction to Tom 
Harrington of San Jose, Costa Pica. I have written to Tom, Air Mail 
today, advising him as to the date of your departure from New York, 
I doubt if you will have the opportunity to use this 
letter as Marta Harrington has written celina that they are meeting 
the train you arrive on. From what I hear there will be a number of 
leading citizens of San Jose down at the station to greet you when 
you get off the train, 
Celina joins me in very best wishes to you for a pleasant 
and most successful! visit in Costa Rica. 
Sincerely yours. 
ohn 0. Carter.
