Autograph letter signed : Naples, to Dr. Baldwin, [1894 June 7].

Thanking him for his note "...& for what I seem to extort from it as good news of Mrs. Baldwin. I expect to reach Florence by the afternoon (1:30 - 2?) express if there be one, on Sunday next, the 10th - reaching the banks of the Arno at an hour I can't now be precise about - as I haven't an orario at hand, but I should think by dinner-time. However, I will wire you definitely from Rome, to which place, Grand Hotel, I return tomorrow to spend Saturday. I may be kept there over Sunday, but besides the delay in the pleasure of seeing you, I shall try not to - for I am impatient & nervous to get at my letters - if, as I suppose, any more have been coming for me to your door. As none have reached me otherwise I have been gratefully assuming that you have kindly been taking care of them. If I shouldn't arrive Sunday it would be absolutely & certainly - Monday - but you shall hear. It will be delightful indeed to dine at the Cascine - & to do so on the evening I arrive if that is possible : (without Taccini!). I promise myself great pleasure, my dear Baldwin, from my few days with you! & from the idea of ministering in any degree, to your relief and refreshment. Ah, this unspeakable Naples."
