Dear Colonel House:
My holiday in the West is now over and I am glad to say I was able to stay away long enough to escape the not weather.
My good friend, Mr. Curtis, has asked me to stand godfather for his boy and as they are to have a christening party on the 25th of this month, I will be in your immediate neighborhood for a day or two and am writing to inquire if it will be entirely convenient for me to call.
Hoping that you keep well and with kindest regards to you and Mrs. House, I am,
Very truly yours
