1906

Lonnie Russ and I had a very interesting visit with Max Hartmann on April 12. Max was in New York making arrangements for his trip which started on April 15. Expects to spend about three months in the British Isles and from there go to Ceylon and Japan. He then intends to return to Austria for the winter months and next spring sail for Australia.

On the last trip he travelled over seventeen thousand miles and covered practically all of Europe south of the Iron Curtain. Says the cheapest place to live is on the island of Majorca. There five cents buys as much as a dollar does in this country.

Ned French was in Hanover the weekend of April 24, primarially to visit a couple of old men who were in Dick's house for their annual check-up. One of the two men received a clean bill of health but the President of the Delaware and Hudson Railway was told to get rid of a couple of double chins and twenty pounds of excess flesh.
