Dear Doctor Wetmore; 
This is in reply to your letter of May 1, 1953 with 
regard to a memoir of Dr. Warfield T. Longcope. 
I would stiggest one of Dr. Longcope's associates at 
Johns Hopkins University as most qualified for this purpose, 
i.e., Dr. Kenneth F. Maxcy or Dr. Alfred Blalock. I believe 
I would write to Dr. Maxcy first, but if, on account of his 
poor state of health, he would not feel up to it, I would 
write to Dr. Blalock. 
If I can be of any further assistance to you, please 
let me know. 
Yours sincerely, 
(s) Esmond R. Long 
Esmond R. Long, M. D.
