Episcopal Bishop William Doane of Albany, New York, apologizes for not having been able to attend the launch of Emperor William’s yacht to which he was invited. Just as he and his wife were about to depart, the bishop was called to the death bed of the superior of a convent nearby. He regrets having had to miss the launch and sends compliments to Alice Roosevelt for her part in it and to Mrs. Roosevelt.
