My dear Captain Amundsen:
I sent a message
to you to cable or
wireless on the eve
of your arrival in
Oslo. It was only this
“ AMUNDSEN, OSLO, SKOAL, FINLEY. ”
I beg now to give
you the interpretation
of the cipher.
I also enclose a
picture of your tri-
umphal entry into
Side 2
your Capital. You will
not find my form
in the welcoming mul
titude, but I was
there.
Here`s hoping that I
may soon see you
again and , take one
of those nice “long walks”
with you and hear
you “tell all about it”.
Yours ever
John Finley
To
Captain Roald Amundsen.
Oslo. Norway.
