She is going through the growing pains
but will come out all right I am sure
The rearranged parlor must be a joy

A letter today from the Corcoran expressed
a desire to have my war sketches as soon
as their exhibition dates would permit
but that they could not show them before
Mar. 1^st and suggested that for showing in
the cases they had for the purpose that a
much larger proportion of uprights would
be desirable. Whether I have enough of those
that I would want to show is a question but
think it can be managed. Thee sees the cases
are of such a size that the "horizontal" drawings
dont hang to advantage. There will be just
two dozen of the large drawings but I think
I can fix things up so as to make a good
showing.
