March 12/[[95]]

My dear Matsuki:

I have you letter of March 6 and thank you for your good wishes and kind expressions of sympathy. I am glad to say that I am gradually recovering from my illness and hope within two or three weeks to be all right again. When this time comes, I shall take pleasure in going to Boston to spend a day with you and to look over the beautiful things mentioned in your letter. I only regret that my health is not in condition to permit me to go at once, as I rather dislike the idea of your keeping these things so long for my inspection.

Now, I beg of you not to do so if you have the slightest wish to show them to another possible purchaser. By this I mean that, if my delay in reaching Boston will in the slightest way inconven-ience you or will in your opinion interfere with the sale of these things to anybody else, just leave me entirely out of the question and I will take my chances with what is left when I do finally reach Boston.

With personal regards,
Yours very truly,
Charles L. Freer

Mr. Bunkio Matsuki
