Adventures and Letters

CHAPTER XIX
7/154

I borrowed a suit from one of the aviators, and splashed and swam around for an hour.
My! it was good.

It reminded me of my dear Bessie, because the last time I was in the ocean was with her.
Maybe you know what is going on, but we do not.

So I just hustle around all day trying to find news as I did when I was a reporter.

It is hot enough here even for me, and I have lost about eight pounds of that fat I laid in during our North Pole winter! VERA CRUZ--May 8, 1914.
DEAR CHAS.: Today, when Wilson ordered Huerta not to blockade Tampico which was an insult to Mediators and the act of a bully and a coward, AND a declaration of war, we all got on our ponies to "advance." Then came word Huerta would not blockade.

It is like living in a mad house.
