November 4, 1921. Malcolm S. MacKay, Tenafly, New Jersey, Dear Friends: Your letter of Oct. 29th received. Charlie leaves tomorrow for a week or ten days in the mountains; anmuch [sic] needed rest and change, as he has worked constantly for four months. I am sorry he has not started your poster, but when he comes back, will try and have him do it the first thing. I cannot pro- mise it positive before Christmas, as we are having an exhibition in Denver, Colorado Springs that will take us away from the 20th of November to the 20th of December. So unless Charlie can do the poster between now and themtime[sic] we go South, I am afraid you will have to wait until after the holidays. We had a good summer at the lake too, only Charlie worked all the time and I am awfully sorry we didn’t get to them this year. I had hoped to have you people see our country and we certainly want to see yours. I think I will start right now and make an iron clad promise that we will see each other next summer. We don’t expect to be East this winter, so our best hope is to see you peo- ple next year. Charlie is doing some wonderful things and seems to enjoy every minute of his work, and if it is possible, you shall have the poster before Christmas. Have you gone to see the photographs of the bronze at Tiffany’s? I wish you could see the originals. Our kindest regards to you all. Sincerely, [Transcribed by Lauren B. Gerfen, 2012-08-22]
