Mrs. High Dillman
12 Lake Shore Road
Grosse Pointe, Michigan 

November 29th, 1938

Dear Mr. Waegen :--

Your letter came yesterday and I am sorry that since we are just in the midst of closing the big house and Mrs. Dillman is in Ford Hospital for several weeks - just for rest and nerve cure - I am too involved at present to be able to make any plans what-so-ever. 

I am getting the staff off to Palm Beach Saturday and Mrs. Dillman will follow as soon as her treatments stop. I will remain here probably until the 23rd - when I leave for West Point. I spend Christmas there - all of us together and then Colburn, Frank and Bill come back here on the 26th and I leave that same day for Palm Beach so you can imagine how tied up I am. 

If there seems to be possible chance between then and now - I will wire you, but I really fear the chance is very slim. I am really terribly tired and nervous now there seems so much to be done that I wish I were twenty people instead of one stupid one. 

I will however , do my very best and hope it will work out somehow . 

As Always, my best wishes,
