I wish you would let me know if you have heard anything from Bruce about your MS.. I know he acknowledged it; but is there a decision?

I fear they may want cuts because the cost of production is so high. It's a good book, and I hope they will just print it. That's the right thing, and the future will prove it.

I'm writing the adult section of my "autobiography", so called. It's for when I'm dead, mostly.

In the meantime, Florence and I are working on the collection of essays. My God! That will be a book of prose -2-43 to talk about!! As we proceed I am astonished! There are so many essays with the stuff of life in them! Surely I was hitting on all 12 cylinders those glorious days when I was pouring out my vitality into the Post-Dispatch, the Minn. Journal, and the K. C. Journal Post!

It will be so good to see you again! You have threatened to come here for a visit, haven't you?

Bless your heart!

— And love to you and your dear ones. John Gaki Neihardt 13 ___________ Air Mail LINCOLN. NE PM JUN 1970
