Jan. 3,1960 MRS.BESSIE W. GAHN THE KENMORE, APARTMENT 436 5415 CONNECTICUT AVENUE. N.W. WASHINGTON 15, D.C. Dear Mrs. Blake: The notice of Dr. Blake's passing was especially sad to me. Now I am the last one of the Office of Botany in Agriculture, and I've been retired since 1947-Dr. Blake, Dr. Coville, Dr. Hitchcock, Miss Clara Pitcher--all gone. Please know that my deepest sympathy is with you & your daughter. Sincerely, (Mrs.) Bessie W. Gahn
