Abstract
A letter from Albert Hafner to his fiancée Elizabeth Chandler in Massachusetts. Chandler's previous letter arrived very late. Hafner laments about the heat and the absence of a breeze that prevents him from sailing. After Chandler told him about a story about a new hat she bought for a deal and cut down to fit her head, Hafner teases that he might be worried about the security of his own hats once they are married. He sends her some lichens and other Florida curiosities she has requested. Hafner continues to update Chandler on the illness at the hotel; he and one other guest are the only people in good health, and the cases of Mr. and Mrs. Weller are serious.
