Conger Reynolds correspondence, April-December 1919

1919-05-11 Conger Reynolds to Daphne Reynolds Page 2

got to wheedle the Passport Bureau into seeing that it is unjust for you to be refused.  I hope measures you may have taken before this may have succeeded.  But I shall do what I can too through the Embassy.  I have an appointment an appointment to see the ambassador or the Chief Secretary about the matter tomorrow.  Still I fear that all I can do over here will be feeble beside the pressure folks in Washington could exercise if they would.  You certainly are doing nobly in pulling the wires!  I hope you will have written to Gibbons.  I know he'll do all he can.
I shall obey your orders about holding out longer. But I want to warn you that there is a limit.  When it arrives I'll turn Bolshevik, say "pooh" to your orders and go home to see you.  Honestly, girl, I can't stand many more weeks without you.
Enclosed herewith two checks for a total of a thousand francs.
Also - my promise of fifteen billion hugs and kisses and all my love.  Do hurry the collection!
Utterly yours,
Conger
