Additional Description

Container Summary

Contains 2 TLS - @ 12/6/74: "Thank you so much for your letter. I shall certainly get to the Memorial Service for David..." @ 2/20/75: "I think your memo for the guidance of David Jones' heirs and successors is admirable and I congratulate you on it. How very typical of the dear man to die intestate, but I think really your proposals are better than anything he would have been able to devise because of his great humility."
