Dear Slats: Come next winter, when my new vicuna sports coat is made up, I shall dazzle my friends--and feel pampered myself. Thanks so much for bringing me that wonderful material.
Short as it was, our Augusta "vacation" was made the more pleasant by the presence of you and Priscilla. I find it hard, at this early morning hour, to settle back to the farm bill--and Republican "principles"--and the foreign situation, even though they were never out of my mind the last week.1 But somehow or other it's easier to take them when there's the prospect of eighteen holes in front of you.
With warm regard, and my deep appreciation of your kindness, As ever
P.S. Mrs. Whitman is to call you today re: more semen.2
