My dear Mrs. Field: above Mrs. is L.W in pencil, and to the right of the colon is Orange, Calif.

  It was most kind of you to write me and I [hasten to reply] to say that fortunately I am not sick, and to thank you for your inquiry.
  We failed to get off in time to reach the Canyon for the dedication of the Pack, [ainsy] to some delay in a business transaction of considerable importance [even] so we have postponed going for the present.
  I thought up to the last moment that I could go but it turned out otherwise. I was very sorry. However we will come along later anyhow and will take such pleasure in calling on you when we do get there.
  Hoping you are very well yourself, and with kind regards,
  Sincerely yours
  F. S. Dellenbaugh
