Of course I approve of your withdrawal from the joint paper. I was a little disappointed at first but I soon adjusted my mind to the new conditions. and shall soon adjust my lecture too. I hope to send you that correspondence [[strikethrough]] of [[/strikethrough]] about the luxurious tree in a day or two. I think I shall put up at the Copley Square, which is the designated headquarters, but if I find that too far from the assembly rooms, I shall go nearer.
