Keewatin, Ont. February 29,
1928.
My dear A.L.P.,
I was too preoccupied yesterday morning to remember the
name of the Montreal man who wanted to be good to me. Would
you write it down and address c/o Graham Spry, 55 Metcalfe
St., Ottawa where I shall arrive on Wednesday, Mar 7 at 5
in the morning?
I have just spent a couple hours remodeling my talk, but
not making it any the less "high-brow." Only, to give, to-morrow,
at the men's luncheon at St. William's I had to cut it to ½ hour;
and that means leaving out the most important part - the
last 3 pages - besides writing the more personal things in
the first ½.
They have begun, here, to do things to me - I mean "Feting" - reception
last night. Car-rides, etc, etc. I defend myself as best
I can. Just now I evaded several callers who wanted to rush
me about by getting into a hot bath and staying there, nursing
that little cold I caught on the Sat. in W'peg before the
blizzard.
Well, take good care of yourself. Best regards to Mrs. Phelps;
and a little hug to Ann.
Yours,
F.P.G.
