Description
From C.F. Kelley, August 24, 1929, wants to visit Nancy C. Russell and discuss "The Phantom of Kootenai Lodge".
Bigfork, Montana, August 24th, 1929. Mrs. Nancy C. Russell, Bull Head Lodge, Belton, Montana. Dear Mrs. Russell: I have but lately returned to Swan Lake from a number of absences. I expect to be here continuous- ly until after the first of September. Mary and I had decided to drive to Lake McDonald this week with some guests, but have been forced to aban- don the trip, on account of the fires. I hope that the fires have not inconvenienced you. If you are intending to remain at Lake McDonald, I will, as soon as traveling conditions are a little better, be pleased to come up and visit; or if you would care to come to Swan Lake, Mary and I would be delighted to have you come and pay us a visit. We have just hung temporarily Charlie’s picture. It looks quite well. The picture is one of the matters that I wish to discuss with you. With kind regards, I am Very sincerely yours, [signed] C.F. Kelley CFK/wk
