My dear Wanda,
A few days ago at Cairo I wrote I intended going to Australia The steamer Barbarosa, a big 10,000 ton ship bound for that far antipodal Eucalyptus land has been signaled outside & in a few hours I expect to get aboard. Three Bells brother & sisters from Philadelphia are going as far as Ceylon & so I dont feel so lonesome.
