January 7, 1924 Dear ILiss Eastwood: were very far behind hand this year in everything re- lating to Christmas and also in many other things, as a result of which much pressing work has not yet received attention and our usual Onristmes syendings to Gslifomia Indians have not even been purchased. Your beautiful greens, especially the mtnzenitas and redwood sprays, came in perfect condition and are still a joy to us all. The beautiful flowers of A. oanescena are remarkably persistant and as lovely as when they first cameâfor all of which we thank .»* vou. ^ You may have heard that on attempting to build a fire in the furnace on our arrival we found the water system cracked and empty so that a delay of several days was necessary before we could have any heat in the house. Then 31izabeth sterted house cleaning and bumped her head with much vigor against the exposed flange o| a register box in the besement, splitting open her scalp from about an inch above the hair line to the middle of the forehead. This was iiTiinedi&tely sewed up by a competent surgeon, but the shock and concussion kept her a^bed most of the time for three weekS| and, while she is now about the house half of each day. she is still hardly herself again but is gaining. 1^1 m. 1 k'- m I.
