“I read in the Herald the adjournment of the Congress and an extra
session of the Senate will meet again for the tenth of May.
“I think that in this present temporary recess, will be the time to
give orders to the plasterer to finish the panels in the Reception
Room, as the oil work will require the wall to be perfectly dry,
and of course three or four weeks. Every plasterer can do it smooth
like the others already painted.
“I am in attendance of your answer about it, and some information
of Senator Wilson’s decision on the subject, for the fresco of this
room, to prepare some sketch and cartoons.
“I am at work in St. Stephen’s Church and I wish to proceed with it
till you will call me for work in the Senate or if you think
necessary an excursion to fix this preparatory work or directions
to the plasterer.”
