Dear Nell:
I was awfully glad to receive your letter from Chicago this morning. I have been worrying about you and Faith as the weather has been so bad in the middle west and East. I turned Sherlock Holmes and after trying to telephone you at Chicago, without success, I telegraphed Pontiac Michigan & found that you had ordered the Car shipped to Washington. This was very wise. I don’t know your Washington address but am trying to find it. Consequently I send this to Charlottesville & hope it will reach you safely. I am writing the P.M. at Charlottesville to make sure that you get this on arrival there.
Unhappily I cant do more than send this brief line today but will write very soon.
Meantime please be assured of my love for you and dear Faith & of my Earnest wish to be helpful always to you. I am sure the new “adventure” as you call it will have a happy consummation; and I hope that you both will always realize that I am at your side in spirit even though we are separated physically by so many miles. Love and best wishes for a supremely happy new year. Mac
