My Dear Howells:
Many thanks. I was not intending to intrude on the President, but I shall certainly go now & present your letter if there is a reception while I am in Washington—& of course there will be, as I shall be there a week or more. I am mighty sorry you can’t go. Mrs. Howells ought to go now & not put ift off—invitations from Presidents are so kind of seldom, you know.
Ys Ever
Mark
