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" & no trouble as a result of his "dirty work" - none, as far as we know Your local trouble seems un- believable but many folk 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 lit." I wd ship it as from The Hysong 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 & lonesome it must seem to be cut off from all news from & of our side. Why not come & visit us for a week & rest & read & read?
