Ammission,

2877. August 19th 4 p.m.
From Leffingwell for Strong, care Morgan Harjes and Company.
Delighted you have abandoned Constantinopole trip. I had hoped you would be back about the first of October. I think we can do a big job together in the last three months of this calendar year and perhaps clean up the whole situation. I do not want to interfere with your plans but the general’s situatiojn has radically changed here and I really feel that you can do the biggest job of all at home in that period.
