Description

Bell on an upcoming Canadian trip in 1910

TLS, two pages on two adjoining sheets, 5.25 x 7, black-bordered Twin Oaks letterhead, April 18, 1910. Letter to Arthur McCurdy, Bell’s former private secretary, in part: “You know the family and the chances are we shall have to scramble to catch the boat at Vancouver, trusting to luck to shake hands with you at Victoria. Under these circumstances don’t rely upon anything more than this. If we can manage to get to British Columbia in time to spend a day or two with you we shall do so, but it would never do for us to make any engagements, and it would not be right to you to have you make arrangements for social functions and things of that sort. I should be glad to have the opportunity of paying my respects to the Governor, but cannot arrange for any social functions.” In fine condition, with a crease to the upper right corner of each page. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
