Dear Folks: got your letter & p.c. today dated the 17th & 18th; they were stamped 19th - 12 n - and must have been held up somehow. After considerable search I found yr. bandages & enclose the smaller one with the 2 clasps. 

Got the car inspected this morning. Got there at 8.20, found about 6 or 7 cars ahead of me & didn't get thru until 11. They charged me 1.25 for allegedly correcting my headlights. Diller's wife got thru at the same place some time ago for 15¢, but Allard told me that Doris, who was evidently behind me in the line today, didn't get there until 12 and was told she would have to have $45 work on the front end. Apparently it has to be done right away if she wants to drive the car. 

Worked at USDA & L.C. today, but didn't get too much done as I lost the whole morning. However, I expect to have everything ready in time. The plan is now to leave early on Friday the 5th, stop & do a few works at Phila. & go on to N.Y. in the afternoon. I am asking for per diem for the time from 5th-13th 
                      Love, Ifg[[?]]
