Dear Alfred,
Thanks for sharing two more wells to look 'into.' Sou obrigado.
Who else but you would in such a memorial manner "and remember the awe that
their well struck us with." Narcissus? Meu Deus. Esta fora de moda.

Lembrancas a sua familia.

Querido Gabriel,
Mention of Joku Melo's flooded me with a cascade of nostalgic memories:
Being a comporary of Fortunato & Filocha I used to visit often and remember
the awe that their well struck us with. It was, however, diminished because
the well of the Escola Prim?ria, a bare 100 metres away, perhaps bored into
the
same laterite mass, was quite as deep.

But the Goan well that takes my breath away is that of M?rio Cabral e S?, at
his
vila in Divar. For sheer depth it stands alone. Moreover being dug into
alluvial soil.

And great joy to you, dear Ven, in your quest for the sublime Goan well. But
pray do not get narcistically attached to it.

Alfred...
