Max Farrand letter to Hill Hastings

Manuscripts

In this letter, Max Farrand asks Hill Hastings if he is planning on going to the June outing of the Sunset Club. He writes that since he believes that Hastings' son is to graduate from the Thacher School in Ojai, that they are both scheduled to be there on Friday afternoon, June 14. Farrand had promised Sherman Thacher that he would stay over that Friday evening, but he thinks he can get out of it. If Hastings was planning to go to the Sunset Club outing that weekend, he wondered if they could work out a combination so Farrand would not have to deal with the unfamiliar California traffic.
