Mr. Robert Penn Warren

Dear Mr. Warren:

          Thank you for sending me the transcript of our conversation and also for the copy of your new novel.

          I have been out of town recently, and in addition, this is a very busy time at the end of our term of court.  I have scribbled minor revisions on the carbon copy which you sent me.  These accomplish little more than making my responses somewhat more literate.  Generally, I think I have succeeded in conveying the thoughts in my mind.

          I hope the interviews are going well and that, before too long, the public will have the benefit of your research and analysis.

                                                Sincerely yours,

                                                William H. Hastie
