Additional Details

"My visit to Philadelphia is to be a very simple one. I shall arrive about 11 in the morning of the 27th & depart for N.Y.C by the train that night after the lecture. I shall be in conference with the newspaper hounds at the Bellevue Hotel from midday until about 1pm. I shall be resting there in the afternoon. So unless you . . . carry me off for lunch on Wednesday it will be difficult to meet."
