From Julian Bond to Earnestine Norman, 28 May 1969

May 289, 1969

Dear Mrs. Norman,

I am sorry to be so long in answering your letter of invitation to Freeport. I will not be able to accept your invitation, because of a special legislative session which is being called by the Governmor for mid-June. I will need to be in Atlanta for the remainder of the month.

Your sincerely,

Julian Bond

Mrs. Earnestine Norman Program Chairman Freeport Freedom of Residence 629 East Orin Street Freeport, Illinois
