for the Insane London. Ontario London, Ont. 8 Oct 1889
Yours of 5th enclosing Kennedy's of a year ago
came to hand last evening—Was glad to have the latter—in fact am always glad
to get anything on that subject. So the mess
work on the "Dinner Book" is done—that being so
Horace ought to have sent me a copy without waiting for the binding—he
promised to do that and I am disappointed
he did not. Tell him if he has not mailed a copy to please to
do so right away. If you or H. have a spare copy of that "New England Monthly" please send it me. Want to
see what the magazine looks like. I am real glad to hear that H.
will write on you in it he ought (and I guess will) get up
a first-class paper. He ought to know
his subject pretty well by this time!
No, I was not much interested in the Pan-American business though it is worth interest—do not see why Canada is not represented—she ought to be. It will all come right in the end only it takes time.—Good heavens! What a group of nationalities there will be in the Americas some day. Shall you and I see the show, standing together perhaps on Alcyone?
By that time you will be feeling better but I wish you could be a little more comfortable meanwhile I fear you are not having a good time
I am your friend R M BuckeTell H. to send the book sure at once if not sent already
RMB.
