8/20/54 Dear May, Your letter came while we were away on a tiring business trip - a real estate taxes tangle, but all OK now. No, no word from "the enemy" and no trouble as a result of his "dirty work" - more, as far as we know your local trouble seems un- believable but many fold are having similar experiences these days. I can well understand how you need the N.G. If you will permit me to do so, I'd love to [express?] to you a sealed pkg of "asstd lix" I wd ship it as from The Hegsong Rest Home and the P.O. wd have nothing to do w/ it. All legal stuff of course. R.S.V.P and say "OK." I keep thinking how dreadfully lost and lonesome it must seem to be cut off from all news from and of our side. Why not come and visit us for a week and rest and read and read?
