Dearest little Girl
Your blessed letter came this morning & I am so glad you really like the plates. They are valuable just because of what they represent from us to you dear children. Of course I will lift your veil for you or do anything you want. And feel so deeply touched that you want me—We hope now to get there about one—lunch on train—and come right up to 12 West 10th where Woodrow will leave me with you & go either to drive or something to have a talk with Col. House—He says it would just bother you if he stayed there. Helen, the McAdoos & Randolph will come up with us—but I think they will all go some where else until the Wedding—I should be there about 130 & if this will make any complication—just wire me tommorrow this way—Willexpectyouatputting any later hour & I will understand—The little pack. from has just come—and I will have to desert dear old Rumpelmeyer for this dainty thing—Thank you, and God bless you little one—
“Miss Ede—”
