Dear Bea:
We are getting along fine - no trouble, despite a heavy schedule. Please tell Dick Lippman that our health is good - give him our love.
Yesterday we went to Agra by car (120 miles), returning today. We saw the Taj Mahal by moonlight, & then saw the sunrise beside it, & then spent the morning looking at it - & also saw many others tombs or temples.
I have written Chancellor Benitez that we might come to Puerto Rico 1 to 8 May. Will you check my schedule, & write him, saying that this week is free (if it is), or that it is not free?
There are too many strange things here for me to begin telling you about them by letter.
Love to Oliver.
Sincerely,
Linus
P.S. I trust that all is well with you & the labs.
