June 6, 1955  No 9

Dear Mr. Seligman:

I acknowledge receipt of your letter of June 1,1955 with enclosed check $ 500.-. which I shall only deposit in case Mrs. Seligman joins you in Paris. Following Mrs. Parker's telephone conversation with Mrs. Seligman I at-once instructed Mrs. Wittmeyer to get Mrs. S. on a boat leaving next week. As there is a slim chance to get a reservation on a boat (Mrs. W. is trying French Line, Cunard & U.S. Line) I made a reservation on my own on Air France for the 21th of June, which was the earliest I could get, not knowing whether Mrs. Seligman or you will agree. I might have some news in a couple of days as regards the boat reservation and will advise you and of course Mrs. Seligman.-

The Money patg. was picked up today as Jack and we will proceed with the shipment and to the Fogg Museum as scheduled.

The Vuillard went out last Friday as planned.
