The only watercolors that I have in my
collection are those that were done by my
wife, Teruko and although they may not meet
the test of being true "Japanese watercolors,"
they are in the least, watercolors
done by a Japanese.

Of all the wonderful and beautiful things
I have seen in my many visits to Japan, some
of which I have even brought back with me,
none has brought me greater happiness nor
given me more reason for blessing my
good fortune than this girl from Tokyo
who returned as my wife.
