My dear Mr. Carter Glass:
Mr. Cooksey was good enough to send me a copy of your kind letter of May 14th addressed to Mr. Emerson, and which reached me on the steamer the day I sailed.What you say about the workorof the Liberty Loan organization at New York is but another evidence of your friendship and thoughtfulness, which I deeply appreciate. How it happened that your letter did not reach me earlier, I am quite unable to explain.It makes me feel a bit guilty to be taking this trip when so many of my friends and associates are hard at work during the hot summer, but I shall hope on my return to settle in the harness again and make up for lost time.With kindest regards and with many thanks for your kind letter, I am,
