1 letterhead New York, June 21 1893 Dear Louie. I bought my ticket yesterday for Liverpool will sail on the Etruria,
instead of the Adriatic as I first intended. The former being a much faster better boat I would gain nothing in time by going
today. I was very glad to get news from home through Wandas letter of the 12th. As I was anxious about Helen. I am sorry to
hear of grandmas illness, I suppose she has been doing too much work in hot weather. The weather here is very hot sultry.
I'm melting in my shirt sleeves. Nevertheless I am in good health endure the heat as well as any of the people here
