I know you are too busy to read long letters so I will come to the point at once.
The shoe maker was here yesterday—and was convinced he could give great comfort & relief—but first said he could not do full justice to the shoe without taking measurements in his own plant in NY—but after I talked to him & explained what that involved he agreed to come down here—if he could secure the things he needed.
I took the liberty of telling him that you were interested—and anxious to have him do anything he could—and that I knew you would help secure things for him—then he said if he could see you & tell you just what he would need that he would come here & try—so I am wondering if you would be good enough to stop off in NY on your way home & go to see the man—& see if you think we could get all he would need here & if so make a note of what the requirements are—so we could provide them—The man is leaving NY
Sept. 9th for a six weeks trip—so he can do nothing until his return but he said if you could come to see him before the 9th that he would then arrange to come here as soon after his return as possible—& in the mean time we would have things in hand at this end of [INCOMPLETE]
