P.S. You may expect to hear from me again before I reach your place as I cannot start so as to reach LaPorte before the last of the next week or middle of the week after. I would however start tomorrow morning if I could (or rather Monday next) - Mother says it will take a few days to put me in travelling order - I have had a severe cold but am getting better in haste, Charles
