Ieri mattina glorioso e trionfonte me ne vado con le mie lettere verso il centro degli affari e mentre sto aspettando il tramway (elettrico) vedo un gran edifizio. Domando che cosa e. E una scuola. Tanto per non perder l’occasione entro dentro e domando del direttore. Sono introdotto e mi presento ad un certo sig. Barrow, un uomo simpaticissimo sulla quarantina, e gli dico che sarei molto felice se potessi aver alcune informazioni sulle scuole di Tacoma. Devi sapere che Tacoma possiede 17 scuole pubbliche frequente da piu di 4000 studenti e studentesse e che del resto queti americani appena hanno fondato un villaggio con 10 capanne vi fondano subito la loro brava scuola quando pure non vi metton un’universita.
Continuo la lettera come s niente fosse comeche sien passati due giorni e 800 chilometri circa. Dunque il Sig. Barto, direttore di quella schula, mi accoglie splendidamente e mi conduce per tutte le aule...Ma di questo parlero in una mia prossima.
Per ora ti dico che sono arrivato felicemente a Seattle, dove mi fermero 2 giorni, dopo andro a Portland (3 giorni), quindi a Salem (Oregon), e finalmente a San Francisco.
Tante belle cose allo zio. Ricordami ai conoscenti ad Ep e Tom.
Baci ad Emma Carlo e bambini.
Tanti baci da

Yesterday morning I triumphantly went with my letters to the to the center of business and while I was waiting for the tramway (electric) I see a big building. I ask what it is. It’s a school. Not wanting to miss the opportunity, I go in and ask for the director. I was introduced and presented to a certain Signor Bartow, a very kind man in his forties, and I told him that it would be great if he could give me some information about the schools in Tacoma. I found out that Tacoma has 17 public schools that are attended by more than 4,000 students (men and women) and that there are these Americans who just founded a new village with 10 cabins and soon they will start their own great school, and also a university.
I’m continuing this letter like nothing has happened, except about two days and eighty kilometers. Mr. Bartow, director of this school welcomed me very warmly and introduced me to everyone in the classrooms...But I’ll tell you about this in my next letter.
For now I’ll just tell you that I happily arrived in Seattle, where I stayed 2 days; then I’ll go to Portland (3 days), then Salem (Oregon), and finally to San Francisco.
Lots of good wishes to uncle. Tell everyone I say hello, especially Ep and Tom.
Kisses to Emma and Carlo and the kids.
Lots of kisses from,
Camillo
