My dear Miss McCausland: I saw Sunday's Springfield Republican.- It's a very beautiful article on O'Keeffe. Very beautiful.-May be the most beautiful I ever read of yours. Rich & flowing. I sent a copy to O'Keeffe. I may not see her but once a week & then only for 10 minutes. And she can't write. Nor may she phone to any one.~ So I don't know whether she read what I sent her - or what she felt if she did.-  It's a hellish situation. Everything about it. Fiendish.~ The "Show" is attracting more & more attention. Her affect on people, deeper than ever - But nothing happens to let her live.- I'll never get quite accustomed to the world - even tho' I know it & understand its mechanism.
