Dear Dorothy:

I received your letter today and note it had gone thru the regular United States postal channels, I am glad, as it is gratifying to be fully recompensed, is’nt it?

The reason I was not sure that I could go to the dinner, we are signing a new lease and were to meet with the owner of the building either Tues. or Wed night, it happened however he left town this AM. therefore we will not do it until next week.
Had you not been compelled to attend your “must affair” we could have had dinner tonight.

Concerning your arrangements with the M.D. made by a friend of your’s.
Convention’s as a rule, accompany fun, wich you are justly entitled and I sincerely hope that you do have a lot of it and enjoy every minute of your short vacation.
As far as being adverse to your having a date with him I am not Dorothy, you can’t have fun alone and I want you to have fun and will like you just as much.
If you want to come back Saturday, I would like to have you and will expect you unless you advise me differently.
The Iowa City, deal is off, at least for this week end, I received a letter fom Eddie, she wanted to know why I completely ignored here invitation to come down over home coming week end after I had promised that I might come and would let her know.
She also advised me that she had made other arrangements, so that’s that.
Now as for you, you have a good time and I will be happy to see you Saturday.

As ever
“Ding”
