This has been such a busy holiday season, Mr. Conroy, that I'm just getting my Christmas cards out now. My excuse is that I was traveling - and I was. Through your state, too. I changed trains in Kansas City on my way up from the really deep south.

  I'm back in the States now for a year or so.   Took pictures of a ?crazy? animal down in C.A. that I wanted to send to you, but they didn't turn out.  It's a half-cat, half-coyote, and I couldn't find a soul who'd ever read archy and mehitabel.
  Sorry to hear about your operation.  Glad to hear about The Disinherited.
   I hope to be in Chicago in February.  If I make it, I'll look you up.  I'd like to get caught up on what's been happening in the Windy City.
