in pencil Gilbert, Martha Lou [no date] Tuesday, April 28 Dear Gladys and Jack -

This is just about three whole years overdue as I think back of the last time I saw you.

However, unlike a certain "published author" and my prolific friend Fallon, I am, and always will be, a lousy letter writer. Full of good intentions and weighed down by the guilt of never carrying them out!

   I have thought of you both many, many times since that lovely, liquid week we spent together in New York.  I haven't fallen over backwards in those same chairs since!  I am sitting in one now.
   Life has been very good to me this past year.  (The ten frantic years I spent in New York somewhat make me feel I deserved at least one good one.)  I am happy to be back in Chicago and
