  Not so warm but D posed ..I am very stupid about this. Was at telephone in aft in very undress when A.P.A. appeared with great roll of tapestry to ask m me to hang it in the studio..I at once acquiesced and arranged for it to go over the big one at end the only place. He spoke of sending telegram to Mc Clung and I begged him to and we composed it.
  "Sit tight and we will win out" Great discussion and we decided that I should go to G and send it in t their carx. I rushed to dress and then to the car which I found aBytheir door.  Off alone to G and funny time sending it.  Was suspected of an elopeme[[nt?]] I know . Had hardly got bck when he and Sl appeared had expected to go with me .
