pleasant time of the year to be in that country, still, if you can go with me, you can see what it is like, and we can have a couple of days' tramping about the hills, looking up the springs, etc., etc.

I hope Mrs. Tryon is very well, and that she can come to Detroit with you. I am counting upon having you both here for a week at least, and we will have nothing to interfere with our comfort. We needn't have any visitors in unless both Mrs. Tryon and yourself would like to have them. We can look at the paintings, prints, pottery, screens, et cetera, without interruption, and I think I am safe in promising you both a good time. Won't you write me on receipt hereof, letting me know what your plans are, and stating when you can most conveniently come to Detroit, and also if you can go to the Berkshires with me for a couple of days, either the latter part of the week or sometime during the following? If you will write me promptly concerning your plans, I can wire you concerning the days you go to Berkshire, and also the best place for us to meet, which will be either New York City or Pittsfield, Massachusetts, depending somewhat upon my movements in New York. 

In the Berkshires we will need old clothes and heavy walking boots. Boiled shirts, etc. can be left entirely behind. Hoping you are both very well, I am,
Affectionately yours, 

Mr. D. W. Tryon, 
South Dartmouth, Mass. 

[[left margin]] I wrote Morris of Philadelphia yesterday in answer to an inquiry that he might have one of your paintings, but that I must consult you as to which one. Let me know which one to send him. Kindly C.L.F. [[/left margin]]
