Dear Miss Addams,
It was such a great pleasure to get your note. Unfortunately I was away at the Northern Tombs when it came, and you were gone yesterday when I called.
But I shall follow you up [next?] [illegible].
Would there be any [page 2] chance of getting you to dinner? Miss Kendrick, Professor of Biblical History at Wellesley is staying with me this spring. Also Miss Bowden-Smith, an English lady who is carrying on a very unusual school here, is most anxious to meet you. We are all holding our evenings open in the chance that there may be some night when we can [page 3] have the good luck to secure you and Miss Smith for dinner and talk here in my little Chinese house. Any evening after tonight is free if you can give us one.
How glad I am that you have come to China!
Please remember me to Miss Smith,
Sincerely yours,
Elizabeth Kendall
