I ‘trust that you will have some good games, Mit, and I am happy that
Isabel and Judy are enjoying their life at Boston. Boston is so full of
tradition and many interesting things that it is an education in itself if
you have a comfortable place of operations to work from and to go places.

You heard about St. Peter and 8t. Andrew didn’t you. Well, They
had a game of golf. St. Peter told St. Andrew to d&ive off the #1 Teé.
St. Andrew took a spoon and hit a long 200 Yd. shot which fell short of
the green, but which bounced up on to the green and crazily fell into
the cup. St. Peter took a #2 Iron and smashed it with all his might. It
failed high in the air, and fell snugly on the green then trickled into
the cup. Each made a hole-in-one. St. Andrew said to St. Peter, =
let's cut out the miracles and play golf.”

ever had a hold of. Then he handed him a tee. The Pilgrim's expectation
and joy were unbounded. There the conversation haulted and the Pilgrim
who couldn't wait any longer to play said, "Give me a ball", and the Devel
said "That's the hell of it, there isn't any balls.

I took occasion though, Mit, to see that the balls were safely
encased ‘in your bags so you shouldn't have any trouble with the Devel. With
all good wishes and affedtion, I am

Sincerely,
