Baddollet-Lullin, Gustave to Madame Dodge, September 14, 1899

Description: Signed by Gustave Badollet-Lullin, addressed to Madame Dodge. Since Madame Dodge knows French, Gustave is taking this opportunity to write her in French, as it is easier for him to write and understand. He apologizes for not being able to invite her over during her impending visit to Geneva, but he will be at boarding school in the country at the time, so it would be a difficult thing to manage. Gustave sends his love to his American Badollet cousins, particularly to Henry Badollet in Vincennes, whom he has not heard from or of in a long while. Any of them can write him in English, he says, as he reads it well enough—he simply struggles with writing it, though he will try his best in order to correspond with his cousins.
