Dear Sir

I was very sorry not to come to New York last winter as I much wanted to see your new house which I hear is superb. The trend of the war seems to make it very unlikely that I will come there this winter, and the same reasons make me feel that I cannot look forward to seeing you here for sometime to come.

In consequence of the Zeppelin raids I am deprived of the pleasure of seeing the Van Dyck, it is more than a year since I saw it last. I am therefore more anxious to sell it than I was, as I get no pleasure out of it. You now have your pictures in your new gallery
