My dear Miss Mitchell,-
In reply to your letter of Sept. 9th will say that I drove over to Marblehead last week, and had a very pleasant call on Mrs. Taylor. I expect to see her again some time before she goes back to Philadelphia.
With reference to matters of interest in your office: I suggest that you have available for examination the various stub books containing blank reports and blank forms of different plants, letters from various people to or about Mr. Taylor (which must be bound and clipped together, so that they cannot be removed) (at the same time copies should be made of them for file), pamphlets and records which he has written; the slide rule which Mr. Barth will probably wish to describe; golf sticks; tennis racket with curved handle. They will also be interested in the various features about the house which Mr. Taylor designed, including the plate glass windows, the wood box which raises from the cellar, the automatic heat regulator, the cooling chamber around the eaves, the reading lamp in the living room, the framed reproductions recently brought from abroad, etc.
I would go on principle that among the number who visit the house there may be some souvenir hunters who will pocket anything
