I told your Secretary that I would be at the office to see you on Saturday morning,
but I caught cold in the very bad weather on Friday, ran up a temperature, and will
have to stay in bed for several days. This will delay my preparations so much that
I
could not now leave on the "Layland"4.
Fortunately there are is plenty of room on all boats
at this season, so I will be able to get something later5. I will report at the office to consult with you
just as soon as I am out and about again. It is a great help to have your
advice.
