Dear Mr. Bowker:

I want to thank you most heartily for your letter of April 6th, in which you inform me that I have been chosen for the Ak-Sar-Ben Western Hall of Fame. Be sure that the honor is deeply appreciated by me.

Will you kindly convey my thanks to the members of whatever committee saw fit to choose me.

I am having a photograph sent to you in accordance with your request, and I will try to be present at one of the rodeos as you suggest.

Sincerely,

John G. Neihardt
