Dear Helene (you see I don’t care about the
files any more),
    You  will  be  pleased  to know we have
just  purchased  a  private  library  which
includes  a  very  nice  copy  of  Walton’s
Compleat Angler and hope to have it to send
you next week,  price  approximately  $2.25
and  your  credit  balance  with us is more
than enough to cover it.
    Your Ellery Queen  scripts sound rather
fun.  I  wish  we  could have the chance of
seeing some of them on our TV over here—it
wants livening up a bit (our TV I mean, not 
your script).
    Nora  and  all  here join me in sending
our best wishes,

                          Your faithfully,
                          Frank Doel
