Dearest little sweet wife:
I adore you, dearest Ava Helen. I was happy to have your telegram when I arrived this morning, at 10:20 - the train was late. Don't try to handle too many distillations at once . I hope that the Robs accident wasn't too painless.
My talk was a great success - Phoebe enjoyed it. Thorfin and Schlesinger and several others said that it was the best lecture ever given before the Chicago Section. I told two stories to illustrate the difficulty of transmitting ideas by words in other fields as well as immunology - Crellin's "Thirty days half September" and the cop's "cut out the pig latin."
Before my lecture I rested in my room in the Medinsh Club and then dictated a summary of the talk ( for which (the talk) I get an honorarium of $100). There were 350 people at the dinner - Dr Kock gave a little talk about striglitz [?] before my talk. Then after the talk I had a cocktail with Phoebe and Thorfin and John and his friend Bruce, and then I got on the train.
Today I have been learning about some very promising results on a new propellent developed here. I am going to try to get it perfect fast.
I had dinner tonight with Monk and a man named Sunderman in the U of Penna. Medical school. Tomorrow I go out to Bruceton again.
I adore you, dear sweetheart. Love to Linda and Peter and Crellin.
Your own
Paddy
