Dear Mr. Frick
It was very kind of you to send me a box of segars [cigars]. I doubt if I could smoke three a day of that kind. I stopped at the Holland to inquire after you and was told that you had left Sunday morning. I hope to see you soon and show you some fine things that I have secured since you were in Paris.
I am glad to see that there is a much better feeling and that Bryan's defeat is only a question of a few days now. How are Mrs. Frick & Helen? I fear that you will have to pay your daughter in gold for her work in the future - if not Cazin and myself will step in and show her our appreciation of her talent. I mention Cazin because I have just received your last letter when I happened to go to Boulogne and I showed the part to him in which Helen said that you had to pay her in gold for her productions! He was very much amused. He sends you his kind remembrances and hopes that his picture will look well at the forthcoming Carnegie exhibit which I understand is to be unusually interesting -
Carstairs & his family left last Saturday on the St. Louis. -
Chartran is to leave on November 7th. Have

you heard of any work for him in Pittsburgh?
Looking forward to the pleasure of seeing you and with kind regards to the family believe me
Very sincerely yours

P. S. Do you think I ought to go to the opening of the exhibition?
