[insignia of Mann & MacNeille, Architects] MANN & MACNEILLE ARCHITECTS 70 EAST 45TH ST. NEW YORK

April 17th, 1919 In re Per. Henry C. Frick, Esq., Fifth Ave. & 70th Street, New York City.

Dear Mr. Frick: I had the pleasure, together with other member of the Architectural League of New York, of enjoying the hospitality of your house on Thursday last, and I cannot refrain from personally thanking you for the pleasure it give me. The educational value from the field of art and good taste that the existence of such a house provides for those who are fortunate enough to see it, cannot be over-estimated. You are sincerely to be thanked by the American people, who are sadly in need of education in planning and furnishing their homes, for providing such a perfect example of domestic architecture. Very truly yours, Horace B. Mann. Horace B. Mann HBM/RB F.
