November 15
Dear David,
Since we have to take what comfort we can find, I thought you might appreciate the enclosed clipping from last Saturday’s Chicago Tribune “Report from Washington.”
I saw your mother this morning and she is pleased with your progress at I. U.
With best regards to you
Most sincerely
Ruth Myers
