Mr. John Black 19 West 103rd St New York City, N. Y
Dear Jack Black:
Itis great good news that you are coming to us April 15th. Please stay as long as you can.
The Connicks let me see a letter from you which greatly relieved my mind. I suppose our nerves are more or less jumpy these times, and I was unduly apprehensive, but I had the idea you might be sick.
We have a group of fifteen young college graduates who are waiting to have you talk to them. I tld them they could ask in some friends. Between them they have raised $25. and deposited some with me in cash, so I send you a check for this amount. It is possible there will be another lecture date also, since the Dennisons are interested. Mr. Dennison is serving with Mr. Connick and me on a hand work committee for our girls.
The date of your lecture to our young interns and staff can be fixed to suit your convenience when you come. Sarah is having vacation, and is happy to have Shady Hill children coming in to spend it with her. Miss Bode and all of our household send greetings.
Ever yours,
MVW/K
