Dear Mr. Davis:

Dr. allen has received your letter asking for “the most -
exciting thing you ever saw on a court floor", and regrets that
he did not have time to answer your request before he left town.
He will be away most of this week.

Inesmuch as Dr. Allen has been called upon to write a
number of article, as well as heed up wer drives for the Univer-
sity, he will doubtless be unable to respond to your request for

a Pew days. if you later desire a similar article from hin, I
am sure he will be happy to write it for you.

Sincerely yours,

Secretary to Dr. Porrest ©. Allen.
