Anthony. Without your able collaboration in the long and patient task of
dressing him up for the world I am sadly afraid he would have been an

Bonnyfeather. Thanks -- my great gratitude and constant appreciation for your
priceless help. Faithfully yours - Hervey Allen, New York City, April 19/33.'
