Conger Reynolds correspondence, April-December 1919

1919-05-31 Daphne Reynolds to Mary Goodenough Page 5

by means of the word "militaire" in a fearsome tone, and a dreadfully important air, he rode right over the officials and came on board--which was strictly against the rules.  Needless to say he was a big help to me when it came to standing in an almost endless line waiting to show our credentials to the customs officer before we were permitted to land.  I paraded Conger around before everyone so they could see the man I'd been raving about all the way across.  We took the train to Paris--and here we are.  We've not got an apartment yet but we are staying in Conger's room until something near enough the office will be vacant.  It means quite a bit to be near as we are because he doesn't have to waste so much time on the way.  It's quiet here because we open on this court, which is very good
