• Message: Seattle, Washington, July 21. We arrived here yesterday. Portland was too hot. Had a boat ride on Lake Washington to-day. It is larger than Clear Lake, but looks like it some, has big wooded islands in it and lots of fish. I like it here very much, it is so like San Francisco. We are quite well. Harriet.
