DR. GERTRUDE B. KELLY, 507 MADISON AVENUE. Apr. 17, 1914 Dear Mr. Pease. I doubt know how much good my interests directed to Miss Levins will do you. I doubt know her personally, very well. how really well her but once, Countess Leary I doubt am at all. She has never designed to even answer any appeal wive made to her. Our important husband. who does know her, confided to me some time ago, but she is no "great shakes". Her antisocialism seems to be recognition by the higher powers of the Catholic Church. but is very short embracing her interest to Stalem, - but she has led to understand. but she is a great deal of "sluff" in this appeared interest. Perhaps you may be able to towalk her only in a new way. It is always worth trying! are you giving any more talls" before you go - Miss McCauliff of the Gaelin Society - thought she could get Dr. Leipzig a who entitled the Public School lecture system to become your and perhaps make an arrangement for when you came again. I have an engagement (inactively) for you for a fashionable girl's school. They pay $500 a $100 for a lecture. I am sure we will be able to work up something before you came back. I enjoyed your second lecture almost as much as the first. You surely have the "gift of several speechs". Handwritten in green signature and scribbles at the bottom right corner.
