6 [[symbol checkmark]] Detroit, Mich., Aug. 28, 1905. Mr. Charles L. Freer, New York City. Dear Mr. Freer:- I am sending you this letter with its enclosures, assuming that you will arrive in New York on Wednesday, and I sincerely hope you have had a very pleasant crossing. On the morning of the 25th inst. I received your letter written on the 13th, and note the contents thereof. I remitted Kalebdjian Bros. the amount of their expenses in connection with the shipment of the pottery, with the explanation that you were still absent. I returned from my vacation on the 22nd inst., and Mr. Warrington came to town on the same day. I was with him at the building all the time he was here, he having to return on the 3.40 afternoon train. He saw all of the contractors and went over with them all of the various points upon which they wished enlightenment. I regret to say, however, that the chimney caps nor the roofing tiles have yet been received, and in fact the shipment of them is quite indefinite. I am enclosing you copies of correspondence which I have had with the Hudson River Blue Stone Company about the caps from which you will see that on Saturday last I wrote them to wire me the date the caps were shipped and up to this hour, 4.00 o'clock, I have had no word from them. When Mr. Warrington was here last Tuesday he said that the caps were shipped three weeks
