I am able to leave the finishing touches on the houses 
to Miguel and will leave tomorrow for Tlaootalpan, will shop in 
Veracruz a day, then proceed to Mexico City for the final 
purchases and the matter of the permit {I haven’t heard from 
Marquina) * I hope to spend Christinas there with my Marian 
and get back here for good by the middle of the following week. 
By the way, notify every one concerned that'our address 
will be 
Hidalgo 55 
Tlaootalpan, Veracruz* 
There is a new storekeeper here, very intelligent, - has worked 
in the United States - who has his home and family in Tlaootalpan 
and goes back and forth once or twice a week. He said he would 
be glad to accommodate us in the matter of nail by having it 
come to his home* 
When you come through Tlaootalpan, call on the president 
of the town. He is a dornell graduate, an ex-football star, 
eager to talk English. Have him take you to the local school 
to see the little collection of antiquities of the region. 
Best wishes to you both for a pleasant trip. We shall 
have to have e house-warminr fiesta when you arrive. 
S in ce re .ly, 
/s/ Welent
