[[preprinted]] ORVILLE WRIGHT DAYTON, OHIO [[/preprinted]] December 6, 1933. Dear Mr. Gardner: I thank you for your letter of December 3rd. I regretted exceedingly that I shall not be able to be in New York on the 17th. I am compelled to return to Dayton on Monday to attend a civic luncheon here on that day. It has been a long time since I have seen you and talked with you. I trust if you get out in this locality you will not fail to let me know. Sincerely yours, [[signature]] Orville Wright [[/signature]] Mr. Lester D. Gardner, Secretary, Institute of the Aeronautical Sciences, Rockefeller Center, New York, New York.
