About MeCorrespondence from James McBey to Marguerite McBey, dated 22 August 1934. McBey writes regarding the details of "the water on the Bulgarian Property"; he notes that Marguerite seems to be having a grand time and that her letters are enjoyable. He wishes to be at Jalobey with her - he says he feels lonely in the evenings. He asks her to tell their acquaintance Arthur to "drive carefully". He writes also about final offers for properties.
