interest in our work, and then, as you know, he just dropped \out of

I! am also enclosing a couple of E~achromes, taken during your 

last visit in Switzerland - I dO hope you will like them. 

We have now Rpent a week up here, and after a fewcteJS in Sundsvik, 

where we are goin3 on the 10th, we will be back here for the rest 

of this month. rhe weather is still very variable, but some sun 

nearly every day. The temperature ~s however rather low, usually 

around 50-55°. 

I had at last a letter from Bo the day before yesterdayG He wrote 

very correctly about the roposal I had made and had a oounterrJ~ 

ro os1tion to offer.
