Summary
Talking about dropping the formality with referring to him as "Mr. Bradford" and now as "Ned"; adding that the New Yorker piece he spoke about appears in this week's issue, but may be too ephermal for a book; noting that Bradford selected one of the Arbuthnot Academy pieces and that Sullivan has a letter from Mr. and Mrs. Robert Sherwood that they just read the second Arbuthnot Academy piece and said unmentionable things about it; discussing his health improving; (in manuscript postscript) saying that they might use the second Arbuthnot piece if they need to.
