Notes, topics or text

Patricia writes from the Commander Hotel, Cambridge, Mass.

It is a scathing letter in which she tells Barnes that he is misinformed about Conrad's health and what is good for him, and is "almost intolerably managing".

A typed copy (four pages only) is in RA1 810 (record 120736).

The topic text for that entry is: on Barnes's generosity, but at the same time his unwelcome opinions on Conrad's health and where the Russells should live.

Patricia refers to dealing with Mr. Cantrell and mentions the Higham House again.
