Owen's Aunts met him after his trip on the S.S. Republic. He asks about family and the property. He will write to Nancy soon. Dancing, musical entertainment, skating rinks, horse races, and trotting on the ice have become popular. The big Alaska sweepstakes for $10,000 will be soon and he hopes it will be won fairly this year. Page 2 missing from copy.
