DEAR FATHER:

Check No. 7498 for 250 francs arrived yesterday. Thank you very much. I

had four francs left. I am living at the home of the Duvals for the

remainder of my stay at Cazaux. I’ll tell you all about it when I have

more time. Till then, know that the Prince of Ely is guest of honor to

the best blood and truest people of France. Their daughter reads many

English books and would like to read some American novels. Will you

please send to me at 45 Ave. Montaigne the following books: _The

Virginian_, by Owen Wister, _Laddie_, by Gene Stratton Porter, and _The

Turmoil_, by Booth Tarkington. These depict American life as she would

enjoy knowing it. She is giving me French books to read.
