Washington, D. C. 
Dear Doctor Grosvenor: 
Confirming our very pleasant long distance 
telephone conversation today, the Royal Netherland Line has 
reserved for Doctor Wetmore Room 54 on lower deck, to be occupied 
exclusively by him, for the five day trip New York to Haiti. 
From Haiti to Venezuela, a trip of two and a half days*, he will have 
Cabin 4 on A Deck to be shared with another gentleman; although 
there may be a possibility of his having it alone. 
Mr. Peters, of the Royal Netherland Line, 
assured me this afternoon that Doctor Wetmore would have all the 
privileges of first class on the entire trip - eating in the 
first class dining room and going any place on the ship that he 
desires - at the cost of $115., minimum, plus $5. tax. There 
will be no additional charge. 
The S. S. STUYVESANT sails at 4 o’clock 
Friday afternoon, October 8th, from the foot of Fulton Street, 
Brooklyn. I look forward with a great deal of pleasure to 
meeting Doctor Wetmore, and I wdll be delighted to be of any 
service I can to him before he sails. 
With very best wishes to you, I remain, 
Sincerely yours.
