[Letter] July 2,1888,Smith College [to F.H. Giddings]

July 2, 1888, Smith College.

Dear Giddings.
      A change of plan 
compels us to start for 
the Mts. early on Thursday 
AM.; and there are 
so many things to be 
done about the house 
that I fear my wife can
hardly spare me for a
trip to Springfield before
going. I expect to return
by about Sept. 10th, early
enough to consult about
details of Sept. meeting.
I suppose we should invite
our speakers at once. I
suggest that we ask Mr.
Giddings to read the essay
on Marx; also that we
ask Prof. Ely to speak; also
that we have one or more
other 'foreign' speakers
(James, Adams, Hadley, Farnham [sic], Taussig, Walker,
etc, etc.)
 How would it do to have
a forenoon meeting, an
afternoon drive and an
evening meeting? Could we
collect an audience?

        Yours Very Truly,
              J. B. Clark

 Address after Thurs.
Ludlow VT.
till Aug. 1,
then Littleton, N.H.
till Sept.
