Roma June 1st 1912

Dear Mr. Macbeth-
  I have delayed writing until I could tell better just how the work is coming out 

You are most courageous to offer a room to show work that you have not seen believe I appreciate it- and I suppose we should start at once to plan about it. It brings home just how soon we will return and all it means to me-

What time would be the

best? Would the first two weeks or week as you think best in Dec. be alright. I think I ought to send one of the large figures to the Academy and there ought still be enough to break down your floors. by the way if possible could I have the top galleries? The reasons are the top light and also that- the hangings you use for the bronze exhibition would answer for my things in that room 

There are now underway thirteen marbles and fourteen bronzes
