Dear Mother:

  No, I have not been to Georgia although I have been on the point of leaving two or three times. Evelyn is worse than before. My last word now was written Saturday. She is worse than at any time last summer. She is having some special treatment, and the next week will bring a turn of events on the contrary - If in contrary I may have to chuck everything for a while and go down there to stay. She is in such an uncertain condition that it is hard to know how scared to be. I am in readiness to leave at any message that comes, but have not gone down simply to stay a day or two and then have to come back, without doing any good or finding out more than I can learn by letter.
 The Cox thing is still holding fire. I have had word that I can count on getting something - whether it is said to be something worth while remains to be seen. They have just got their offices opened, but haven't got very well organized yet.
 I am ashamed at not having written, but I will try to hereafter. I will not be over until I have had some definitely encouraging news from Georgia. That can hardly be by Sunday. Will write more later -
  Hastily - with love to all there
  Bob
