Dear Mre Bowling, |

Confirming our telephone conversation of recent date I beg

to state that I will be happy to come to Hope on Nevember 16
for your father and son banquet. Incidentally, this happens
to be my birthday, but I teke birthdays in stride just the
seme as other days. I've never made much of them although
many people do. Tho way I enjoy a birthday is being thankful
that we're well and happy and that we live in a country where
every day is a pleasant one compared to the days experienced |
across the water. «= ~~ .

Won't you write me and give me some details or background of
the banquet and also what time the meeting is to be held?

Very cordially yours,
