Curium Excavations Episkopi, Limassol Cyprus 20May54

Dear Gloria:

Rodney writes me that the Curium Fund in Phila. is overdrawn by $22.47. I presume this time Fro has given you a check on our Chase Bank account for this amount, so that we are back to even again. I don't quite grasp what the overdraft is for, however. I gave you $300. and out of that I presume you paid $156.14 for the articles shipped to us and the bill for their transport, insurance, etc. I know of no other charges against it. Perhaps you would let me know the score?

In the meantime I enclose a check for $50.00 for this Fund. Ellen and Rodney may be wanting to draw on it for air-mail postage, small items I need etc., perhaps. Let me know if this gets low, and I will replenish it.

Best greetings to all,
