Letter from John G. Neihardt to Bower and Lucile Aly, May 11, 1958

5-11-'58 Dear Lucile & Bower:

Thanks for the invitation to be a guest in your home after June 8. I will return from Yankton about June 7, and then I can come to you for a week or more. I think this is a good plan, as it will save you much coming and going. I do hope, however, that we may be at Skyrim once or twice. If we give our time to the job, much can be done in even one week.

Alice & the children will be leaving (with a load of horses) next Wednesday. (This is Sunday). I'm glad I can tell the children I'll be coming down to them in a short while.

I'm reading the MS — Chap IV. Good job! Two or three corrections as to facts — easy to make. Will pass the MS on to Dr. Reid.

Affectionately, John N.
