Letter from Dr. Emma B. Wharton to LP RE: Thanks LP for the interesting talk that he gave before the Orange County Medical Association.

States that he thought that the common abnormality must be in the stroma upon which the hemoglobin is embedded and he had not conceived that the hemoglobin itself could be different. States that it opens up a large field of investigation of similar hematological conditions. [Letter from LP to Wharton March 28, 1950] [Filed under LP Speeches: 1950s.9]
