Inter-office letter from R. M. Armstrong to Harris Leon Kempner regarding his son, David Armstrong's trip to Europe from middle of June to sometime in September where his itinerary is not fixed but would be spending most of his time in Italy. He mentions that he has no connections there in case of emergency for him, so he's writing this letter to Kempner requesting him to write a letter of introduction for them to someone in his office in Italy for Davis to go and seek for advice or help.

Document listing the names, geographical or business affiliation, and dates of visitors entertained by a member of the Kempner family.
