Dear Dad - 
Thank you very much for returning those Civil Service forms so promptly. I have now another favor to ask of you, which I hope you will not cause you too much inconvenience. I very foolishly neglected to bring my M.A. thesis with me, and now I find that I would like to have it; I would like to re-work it, divide it up, and make out of it some critical articles for possible publication. You will find it on the shelf in the closet in my room, in a yellow typewriter-paper folder. The title of it is I.A. Richards on Tragedy. There is also in that closet a black suitcase filled with notes from courses and papers, and I would like to have this also. I thought you might simply put the thesis in the suitcase and then send the case as it is. When I left Dubuque, I did not think that I would have time or inclination to do any work of this kind for quite a while,

Saving...
