MY DEAR MR. CRAMER:

I am now for the first time able to fix approximately the time of my

visit to Copenhagen. We shall leave here on Saturday, three weeks from

to-day, or on the following Tuesday. We shall stop at The Hague three

or four days. Jesse leaves for home so as to take the steamer of the

fourth of June from Liverpool. Our party therefore will consist only of

Mrs. Grant with her maid and myself. If your arrangements are made to

be away from Copenhagen at the time mentioned above, I beg that you

will not change your plans. Should you be there, we shall probably

remain over about one week. Should you be away, we shall stop only a

couple of days.

I have not heard directly from Elizabeth for some time; it is probably

my own fault, for Mr. Corbin is very prompt in answering every letter;

but Bucky writes regularly every week from New York, so I hear

indirectly. When you write home give my love to all of them at

Elizabeth.

Very truly yours,
