Local Notes:

Culture Class Collection copy 3 inscribed "Dear Van Wyck, These have just come and I thought I'd send you one. It has been raining for four days and it is cold. I am going to leave on the 1st and then a week in Sorrento or Amalfi before sailing. I wish you were going to be at either or both. Why don't you go to see Dorothy Donnelly? I know she would love it. I am so anxious to get home and have a long talk. Give my love to Jack and write me a letter to my steamer - ? - Naples. E. B. S., Oct. 15th, Venice.
