[[strikethrough]] Philada [[/strikethrough]]Paris April 14.

Dear Mommy, 

I didn't think that my last letter would be overweight for I only used a half a sheet but the photograph was a little too heavy & I had sealed it up & hadn't time to go back & get a new envelope, after the man said it was overweight.

How do you like this picture of Gerome.  [[strikethrough]] Don't you think pale [[/strikethrough]]  We went to Bonheurs to dinner last Sunday.  We had a good dinner & afterwards we played Lotto which gave Bill good practice in French counting.  I took my gun & pistol around to show their cousin who was there who is a good mechanic.  He said he never saw such beautiful arms & so they are.  America beats the world in machinery.  Did I tell you to send letters to my studio Ancien no 8 rue Cassette rue de Rennes.  That's my studio address.  The Tribune may come as before to 116 rue d'Assas [[strikethrough]] for [[/strikethrough]] & I will walk over & get them when I have time.  I am in more of a hurry about letters.  I like to have them as soon as they come. School is going on the same as ever.  I think we have more good workers there than ever before and this is a great advantage for you learn a great deal more.  Lenoir comes regularly & Jarraud & Cure & Sauvage.  Rinens Patroillard Medard & Guay from our studio can't come now as they are all
