In part; “I am very sorry indeed to tell you that I did not get my data from the variation of the Magnetic Compass sufficiently accurate to publish it in a scientific paper.

When I return to my Headquarters at Boston I will look things up and let you hear from me.” Intersecting folds, one through a single letter of signature, several spots and strips of toning, otherwise fine condition.
