Description |
English: Typed letter, black text on white paper. Mr. Van Amringe gives Mr. Nicolson their “hearty thanks” for the Virginia Dedication but wonders “I believe the World War has served to dwarf into insignificance practically all the evidence of previous wars and events.” He also mentions that the Virginia Dedication was expected to draw many of the participants from the Confederate Reunion in Washington held a few days earlier, but it did not. Was it the weather or the lack of housing in Washington that dampened their interest in the Dedication? Finally, Mr. Van Amringe thanks Mr. Nicolson on behalf of his wife for the souvenir pamphlet including sheet music he gave her.
