My dear Dr. Allen:

It was a disappointment to me to not see you when you
were in Salina. Mrs. Hunt has been away for more than two
weeks, and I left Saline Monday morning, November fey tO gO
to Lebo, Kansas, and just returned late Sunday evening.

Our daughter Margaret, in whose home you stayed when you
were there, spent a week in the hospital in Emporia; we brought
her home last week. I intended to write you a letter before
you came to Salina telling you I would not be in the city.

I heard your broadeast one night last week while sitting
in the old Edwards Home Place at Lebo where Margaret now lives.
It is just at the edge of the little town.

I trust all of your family are well. I used to hear from
Mary once in a while, but she has ceased writing to me. ie T
had her address I would write to her. I have a little feeling
of personal responsibility for her domestic happiness, and I
like to keep in touch with her family. I would be glad to know
also where Bobby is and what he is doing.

Our Bob said that he saw you recently when he was in
Lawrence for a few hours. He writes me that they are re-classi-
fying them now to see if they are in the place for which they
are best fitted. With thet as a measuring stick, I should
think that he would stay right where he is.

Kindest regards to Mrs. Allen, Mit, and the rest of your
family and best wishes for a happy Christmas season.

Most cordially,
