Dear Miss Addams:
Please do not associate me with the hound of heaven if I venture to ask you if you would care to say a few things in our columns about immigrants apropos of "Immigrant Backgrounds," by Henry Pratt Fairchild, a volume of contributed appreciations by specialists in national traits. If you are one of those "seeking easy and pleasant work in our own home during the summer months," I should be glad to send you the volume.
I hear from my family that Ruth is coming back to Michigamme for the remainder of the summer, and that Ida and Beatrice, still at Kauai, are planning to leave as soon as Beatrice can replace herself.
I hope that you are having a pleasant summer. If you are at Bar Harbor, may I ask to be remembered to Mary Smith? She will be interested to know that I recently assisted ↑[at?]↓ [a?] complete reconciliation between Robert and Philip Herrick, saw Philip reinstated in his father's affections and will, and some increment resulting to Mrs. Herrick's allowance. I do not claim any personal credit for these happy results.
With best wishes always,
Most sincerely,
Robert Lovett [signed]
