We had a delightful voyage - the ocean like a lake and absolutely no trouble of any kind, except a good deal of delay at Falmouth in landing, owing to its not being the usual port of entry and to shortage of labour.

The naval battle was certainly most exciting and I regretted not being on land at the time it was fought, as we only heard of it on landing. | We had a delightful voyage - the ocean like a lake and absolutely no trouble of any kind, except a good deal of delay at Falmouth in landing, owing to its not being the usual port of entry and to shortage of labour.

Dear Mr. Frick, We had a delightful voyage - the ocean like a lake and absolutely no trouble of any kind, except a good deal of delay at Falmouth in landing, owing to its not being the usual port of entry and to shortage of labour. It was very sad upon arriving to learn of the death of Lord Kitchener, for whom I had a profound admiration. The naval battle was certainly most exciting and I regretted not being on land at the time it was fought, as we only heard of it on landing.
The cigars were very enjoyable and the condition of the sea such that I was enabled to smoke the entire voyage.
London is extremely quiet for the month of June and nothing much is thought of except the prosecution of the war. But one feels that there is a very much firmer grip on things now than when I left last October, and that time will end it favourably for the Allies.
I found some extremely interesting mezzotints and am shipping them this week. Among them is the "Lady Pelham Clinton"
