September 12, 2012

Mi presento poi in due dei piu eminenti club di San Francisco ottenendo per me un biglietto che da diritto per alcune settimane a tutti i privilegi dei soci.  Per esempio, ora io sto scrivendo nell’ampia e lussuosa sala del Bohemian Club, servendomi dell’ottima carta che questo club fornisce.  Cosi poco fa feci una squisita colazione al restaurant privato annesso al club, e cosi posso usufruire della biblioteca ottima e ben fornita che questo club possiede.  Cosi sono stato anche introdotto all’University Club che e uno dei piu aristocrati.

Oggi poi andro col dottor Ollino ad un concerto ove faro conoscenza coi maggiorenti della colonia italiana e cosi anch domani e dopo saro occupato piacevolamente.  Adesso termino perch non voglio abusare della carta del club.  Continua scrivermi a San Francisco percho non so quando abbandonero questo paese delizioso.  Salutami tanto lo zio ed i Marselli a cui questa lettera si puo considerare anche diretta.  Ricordami ad Epifania ed Tommasin.  Baci ai bimbi ricordandomi alle famiglie amiche.  
Baci da

Afterward I was presented in two of the most important clubs in San Francisco and they obtained a temporary membership for me, with all the rights and privileges in the club for a few weeks.  For example, right now I’m writing to you from the ample and brightly lit salon at the Bohemian Club, where they are letting me use the excellent paper that the club provides.  Recently I had a wonderful breakfast at the private restaurant attached to the club, and was able to take advantage of the club’s well-stocked library.  I was also recently introduced at the University Club which is one of the oldest and most exclusive clubs.

Today I went with Dr. Ollino to a concert where I met with the elders of the italian community and tomorrow I’m also pleasantly busy.  I’ll end here because I don’t want to abuse my situation with the paper at the club.  Continue to write to me here in San Francisco, because I don’t know when I’ll leave such a delicious place.  Give warm greetings to uncle and to Marselli, to whom you can consider this letter also directed.  Tell Epifania and Tommasin I say hello.  Kisses to the little ones and warm greetings to the family friends.  Kisses from
