Dear Jack Conroy:

    Sorry I'm just now answering your good letter with your review (and a review from The New Masses) of underlined:  Foretaste of Glory.   Some contrasts in the two reviews.  The New Masses reviewer intimated such didn't happen.  At least that's the way I interpreted it,  you intimated it did in your review and said so in your letter and I say you are right.   I know, I was there and saw it happen.
    See,  You and I are firm (well, I am here still) practically the same Country, you  have a deep feeling for it and will probably return someday, when you go to writing about the pawpaw patches down in the hollows and the cow trails among them I know what you mean.  And the persimmon groves upon the ridges - Both are possums' delight.  A persimmon or a pawpaw is the same to a possum as a good steak is to a man.
    When underlined:  Taps for Private  Russia came out,
