Dear Friend: 



Your gracious note of the 13th is at hand. Of course, 1 should greatly appreciate 

 such an honor as the dedication of your book to me, and I only wish that I might have 

 the satisfaction of feeling that I really deserved such a distinction. 



I am greatly interested in what you are planning and I trust that your work will 

 he eminently successful. 



With appreciation and kind regards, I am. 



Sincerely yours,
