one or two years, and in view of the little
trouble between Delphine and myself, I
thought it would not be advisable
to go away without giving her the choice
of marrying, if she so wished it. On
telegraphing her to this effect, she agreed
to meet me at Missoula, Mont. where we
married. Our marriage has made her
very much happier and I'm just as happy.
The ceremony was beautiful. Mr. Stefansson,
as you know, was good enough to be
best man and besides he was very
kind to assist me in making the
necessary arrangements. In fact
many of the people in Missoula
were very hospitable to us. After a
short continuation on the road with
Mr. Stefansson, Delphine and I returned
to Seattle where she remained with
me until I sailed.

I hope your visit in Chicago
was a pleasure and a rest to you.
No doubt you enjoyed it from the
length of time you stayed. I think
you should take similar vacation
more frequently.
