Transcriptbox00007_fld00024_bdl0004_doc0001_00000001.txt; S.H. CHURCH President PITTSBURGH, PA. June 19, 1914 My dear Mr. Carnegie: We have suffered a good deal of delay this year in getting out our Founder's Day "book, in the first place "because of the new duties of the Presidency and in the second place because we have added new materiala nature which we have never published before. This has suggested itself as information of peculiar value particularly in connection with your visit to Pittsburgh, and altogether I think it is the most interesting and attractive Founder's Day book we have ever published. The publishers are trying to get five hundred copies on the steamer sailing tomorrow, Saturday, June 20th and I hope these will reach you without great delay at Skibo Castle. Always sincerely yours, Mr. Andrew Carnegie Skibo Castle President Dornoch, Sutherland Scotland
