Dear Peter,
We arrive in Boston Monday, August 27, and during that week are driving in the Riley to New Brunswick and back to New York. We shall be in the Biltmore Hotel from September 3 to September 13, and shall then drive home by the southern route, arriving about September 23. I suppose that this is too late for you, but if you decide to ride home with us, let us know.
Much love from
