Summary
Describing how he is altering his manuscript before Mellor has accepted or rejected it; enclosing a poem he wrote about a year ago, which Don [Hall] thinks is the best thing Gunn has written; asking if Mellor can insert it in the sequence for The sense of movement between the poems "On the move" and "At the back of the north wind"; adding that it will appear in the Paris Review in the next few months; thanking him for his Christmas card and promising not to make any more alterations until he hears from him.
