San Francisco, July 30, 1901
My dearest Mate:
Behold a soldier on the eve of battle! I am writing this in a
stuffy little hotel room and I don't dare stop whistling for a
minute. You could cover my courage with a postage stamp. In the
morning I sail for the Flowery Kingdom, and if the roses are
waiting to strew my path it is more than they have done here for
the past few years.
- The Lady of the Decoration
