Should it be Bombay and should they ask you to help them in making up their itinerary, I trust you will do so. I have given them a list of places to visit, but there may be hygienic or other reasons for their not going to certain spots in my list. I shall of course appreciate any politeness you may show these gentlemen, but I don’t want you to go to the trouble of entertaining them.

The Colonel and Miss Hecker join me in every good wish.

Faithfully yours,
Charles L. Freer
