day (July 19) at Pylos, the 20th at Milo,
the 21st at Seyros, arriving at Salonique
on July 22d. I sent you several notes
en route, to be brot back to Tarento by
returning French and Italian transports.
I feel sure that the rest of my mail
(during my stay in Salonique, etc) must
have reached you OK, for the other
fellows have had answers to their
Salonique letters now. I have
volumes of things to tell you of
that trip around Greece -- which
I will be entertaining (or boring!) you
with by the fireside in our old
age. And if I haven't told you before --
you may now take your map of the
Mediterranean Country and wind
about the Isles of Greece with me,
and even anticipate retracing our
journey together in after days --
it is possible -- who can tell! And
who can dispute the possibility of
our driving along the shores
of the beautiful Lakes Presba
and Ochrida together in after days,
and camping on the sandy-pebbly
beach, plunging in the envigorating
waters in the early morning --

Dreams? But what are dreams but
the anticipation of reality, if they
are clung to! And in the very hour
that you were riding home from
the station, with me beside you
