My dear Gertrude:
Your letter of March 21st has just arrived with its enclosure of a check for $175.00, thus clearing our account. I know that you would remember the mistake in the price of one of those pictures and I am hoping that when you have an opportunity to open the box you will be as pleased with your things in their Western setting as you were when you saw them here in my house.
Mary and I have had a long visit of more than a month in Shanghai. Now Helen with her sister-in-law, Mrs. May, is visiting us here for a couple of weeks. As soon as they are gone Mary will have an opportunity of writing to you at greater length. This is only an acknowledgment of the receipt of your check.
Please give our very best regards to your mother and accept our love for yourself,
As ever,
John (C. Ferguson)
