4Dear Friend, I send you a little story I wrote many years ago. Don’t
5know if I showed it you before. Like it because I first made it up
6when I was a child.

8I prize your likeness the Review of Reviews.

10I am well. I am working. If only I can have quiet & no visitors I
11shall get all the work off my brain in a year or a year & a half. Then
12I can return to the other active sort of work.

14It’s splendid that the Review develops so.

16Believe me always yours loyaly & truly
