I am going to get it out in nice shape, and I trust it may be the means of doing good in inclining those who read it toward a simpler life. I am greatly interested in the ideas which you present in your various books. "I hope you will have a safe journey to Italy and back. "I remain, as ever, "Very sincerely and respectfully yours, "J.
