You note what he says about a trip “ here, and shall be glad to hear from you if your friends are willing to} pay his xpenses connected with the | trip, provided you cannot come to| an understanding. “I knew nothing of Mr. Hille or ‘ his qualifications except what was told in his brother-in-law’s letters.
