Summary
Notifying that she is "in bed with one of those things called 'a cold'" and that she has re-read his March 8th letter; thanking in advance for a copy of his book, "The Personality of Chaucer"; thanking for her copy of "Nine Before Fotheringhay: A Novel about Mary, Queen of Scots"; promising to let him know "whether or not a drama for Beatrice Straight lies within"; marveling at his creative output and contrasting it with her "tiny job of arranging my accumulation of things for the U. of M."; asking for "the dialogues you write of"; needing to eat breakfast and drink tea.
