Dear Sir:

Your letter has followed me hither, (where we are summering,) reaching me a couple of days ago, somewhat delayed by e the extra travel. It would give me sincere deli pleasure to comply with your request, but I am hardly well enough to write even a brief note explaining my situation & conveying my regrets.

I am, dear sir,

Truly Yours
