Dear Nell-

I was much impressed by the illustrations in the catalogue of your recent show and have every intention of viewing the whole collection. In fact, just a week ago I started out with this intention, meeting Charles Norman & his wire, en route to the Gallery. But I got held up at Bonwit's over a bill, and-with mission unaccomplished-had to hasten home. I'm-and perhaps this is natural on the eve of one's eightieth birthday-my powers of endurance are waning. The last three years have been those of illness, and I've been more on my back than on my feet.
I feel I have lost a lot in missing your collection, for even in the catalogue they are alive and animated by a joie de vivre
