I will come east sometime next year to see you, it seems like a century since the last time I seen you. do you remember that glorious day? How did you spend your new year? did you see that picture which is being exhibited in your wonderful city "Quincy Adams Sawyer"? I think you owe me a note, or do I? Josephine." Dated Jan 1, 1922.
