MS: Berg Collection, New York Public Library.
Dearest Barbara
Unhappily I can't travel alone, being a disgrace to my sex for helplessness (or idleness). But we are longing to get to you and as soon as George's business will allow him to leave, I shall write to you and announce our coming. He hopes this will be next week.
The weather here is muggy.
Ever thine
Marian.
