HEMINGWAY, ERNEST. Autograph Letter Signed, "Ernest," to an unnamed Doctor, on his voyage on the S. S. Volendam, joking about his weight, hoping that Jinny can go shooting with him, mentioning a mutual friend and other matters. 2 pages, on facing sides of a folded 8vo sheet, Holland-America Line stationery; a few ink smudges. On board the S. S. Volendam, 4 May 1931
- Notes: "Muggy day to leave here. Few tourists in Havana. But very quiet. Boat packed with [unclear word] Spaniards. Thanks ever so much for looking after the guns and rods. Left Key West at 196 -- 201 yesterday -- 205 today -- at that rate we'll hit 300 by June 11th. If you drank beer, Dr. you'd weigh a ton. Pauline just told me over the phone that Jinny was coming tomorrow. Maybe she could go shooting with you... I'd appreciate it like hell if she could... Tell Sully his friends on the boat entertained me very royally. So long Dr. I'll write you later. Looks like a blow coming..."
