Adventures and Letters

CHAPTER VI
38/79

Love and lots of it.
DICK.
CAIRO, March 11, 1893.
DEAR MOTHER: In a famous book this line occurs, "He determined to go to that hotel in Cairo where they were to have spent their honeymoon," or words like that.

He is now at that hotel and you can buy the famous book across the street.

It is called "Gallegher." So--in this way everything comes to him who waits and he comes to it.

"Gallegher" is not the only thing you buy in Egypt.

You ride to the Pyramids on a brake with a man in a white felt hat blowing a horn, and the bugler of the Army of Occupation is as much in evidence as the priest who calls them to prayer from the minaret.
