The temple Of Ashtaroth measured
roughly 20 by 30 feet, with its axis
running east and west. It comprised
Il long central hall with three circular
stone bases on either side, built into
brick walls and evidently once sup

Dear Cabot,
In the Alaska boundary, | feel that
It Is altogether too important a mat
ter TO take snap judgment or to
forfeit a single change of bringing
1t to successful conclusion. OF
course You are to go. There Is not
at present one single act which
would justify so much as considering
the breaking off of the negotiations.
The British wanted to delay presenta-
tion of their counter case, but as a
matter of fact they have presented
1t on the day specified. Choate
writes that he thinks there may be
request for IL or 15 days extra
time for the presentation of argu-
ments.
While on the one hand l should
peremptorily decline to let the case
go over until next summer. on the
other hand l should feel that 1t would
be an act of petulance and folly on
our part to break off the negotia-
tions II the British simply requested
10 or ID days extra, or even a month.
We should at once be putting our
selves in the wrong if We adopted
such an attitude. A demand for such
a moderate additional time could
under no conceivable circumstances
be taken as an evidence Of bad faith.
