Boston, Massachusetts* 
Dear Mr* Pollen: 
Following your kind letter of September 14 I 
was forced to postpone my trip to Guatemala due to illness 
in my family which now happily is at an end. I have a 
reservation on the Metapan sailing from New Orleans on 
October 21, and shall look forward to meeting the representatives 
of your company in Central America* 
Very truly yours.
