Boston, 19 Nov 1936 
Dear rtetmore: 
I got back here from a hard, dirty trip in Mexico last Monday, and 
today have rec'd your highly interesting letter of Nov 7th. I cannot tell 
you how delighted I am that you have really been using the old house. With that 
high overhead,- eight dollars per month,- T hate to let the place stand idle 
very long at a time. 
I am sailing for Honduras on the Platano, Nov 28th. *f it calls at Barrios 
< c e 
first I assume I may see you there, since you are coming back on it; but I am 
afraid they go to Cartes first, in which case I shall just miss you. 
I have been staying at Tom Barbour's the past few days. Last night Frank 
Hunnewell and his sister came to dinner, and we arranged things fbr them to 
use the Antigua house toward the middle of January. They are going down on the 
Grace line. 
I go back to Washington to spend Thanksgiving, and hope at that time to 
drop in on Duncan at the Museum and see what he has done with the Ulua stuff. 
I ran into Frans Blom here yesterday, and he tells me Doris Zemurray is working 
up a paper on the Yojoa pottery just as fast as she can. Doubtless she will 
get into print before Demean,' but 1 dont think it matters much. 
I feel rather badly about that dierry. I hoped you would like it, but if 
you have only consumed one bottle it is obvious you really dont take to it very 
strongly. Try the Rhine wine,- or maybe it is all gone. I havent been there in 
some months to replenish stocks. I am planning to spend Christmas week over 
there, ^nd if I do, I shall enjoy your kerosene lamp to the fullest. I feot some 
good books on Spanish Colonial architecture, in Mexico City, which A want to 
read. 
Glad to hear you have been getting chummy with Carlos Cipriani. I think 
a 
he is the most worth-while Jefe Politico we have had in Antigua.
