Dear Frank—
Yes, I’m still pegging along at the book, &Ⓐemendation making pretty good &Ⓐemendation steady progress, though I continue to tear up MS. The weather has grown so warm &Ⓐemendation wet here that we begin to fear for the children’sⒶemendation health, &Ⓐemendation so we may break up &Ⓐemendation run to Paris shortly. That will make another break &Ⓐemendation a consequent delay, but I hope not a serious one.
Our Paris address will be “Care Monroe & Co. Bankers.”Ⓐemendation
Yes, we calculate upon returning to America next August &Ⓐemendation to Hartford in October.
Yrs Truly
S. L. Clemens
