My dear Strong:
I have your letter of February 26th enclosing a communication addressed to Basil Miles, which went forward much more promptly than my acknowledgment.
I am interested in what you say about Major Huse’s book, and I shall at the first opportunity take a glance through it. I am sure a copy can be found in one of the many libraries in Washington, so you need not go to the trouble of having it sent to me from Denver.
I think of you often, and I sincerely hope that you are fast regaining your health. The work here is very voluminous, but it is of such tremendous interest that we are all bearing the strain wonderfully.
With kindest regards and best wishes,
Sincerely yours,
