Is grieving for Margie and for Mrs. Otis Skinner, who lived only a few blocks away. Didn't see her very often and now regrets not making the effort these last few weeks. Enclosing a birthday gift a week late. Mary Virginia's husband has had a sinus operation and been very ill. Their apartment was burglarized, but Mary Virginia never complains. Finds her such a cheering presence. Willie [Stout #1351]
Enclosing a letter from Mrs. Skinner's daughter. Please return it after Mary sees it. Menuhins coming in tomorrow. P.S.: English reviews all good. Willie [Stout #1353]
Saw in the newspaper that there had been a speech at a club in Red Cloud about Cornelia Otis Skinner. Sending a sketch of Maud Skinner that was given her by her daughter. A typical story of that period when young people were escaping from prairie towns to bigger cities to experience more of the world. Willie [Stout #1478]
