St. James's Church
 
      HYDE PARK, N.Y.
 
      REV. FRANK R. WILSON, 
 
      RECTOR 
 
      ARTHUR S. HALPIN, 
 
      TREASURER 
 
      
 
 
5. Your plans for retiring from the church and giving opportunity 
      to the congregation for viewing the photographing are splendid. 
      (I want to remind you again that I have asked the Rev. A Raymond 
      Smith, rector of St. Anne's, Campobello, to read the lessons. 
      Mrs. Wilson and I have asked him and his wife to be our guests 
      for something over a week at that time. I can imagine when he 
      goes home to his little island that he will have something to 
      tell the natives about.)
 
      6. By all means we shall have to depend upon troops for patrol. 
      I will suggest to Colonel Starling that a patrol be maintained 
      about the church during service to keep people away from the 
      windows, especially if it is warm, so that the confusion set 
      up by their talking will not be heard inside.
 
      Another matter comes to my mind. What arrangement have you made 
      with Bishop Tucker, the Presiding Bishop, for entertainment? 
      Is he coming up on the day before, or on that Sunday?
 
      
 
 
I don't want to give the appearance that we are issuing cards 
      of admission as though it were a function not a church service. 
      Would you like that I have cards printed quite like the following,-
 
      ST. JAMES' CHURCH
 
      HYDE PARK
 
      
 
 
This card must be presented to an usher before 10:45.
 
      June 11, 1939.
 
      Or would you suggest another reading?
 
      I hope Colonel Starling will let me know beforehand the day and 
      hour when I may expect him. In that way I can arrange to be on 
      the spot and he will not have to waste his time looking about 
      town for me.
 
      Anyway, I will have a chance to talk further with you when you 
      are here over the 25th. Here's to you|
 
      Faithfully yours,
