<br>I was indeed still at Professor Rand's home when your letter arrived . . . but only just. Had it come a few hours later, there is no telling when I might have seen it! As things are, your note arrived in timely fashion, and is much appreciated. I thank you. | <br>I was indeed still at Professor Rand's home when your letter arrived . . . but only just.

<br>Does this letter seem abysmally stark or professional? It is not meant to be so. I am very concerned for your happiness and well-being; not merely for your safety, or the "success of the mission". Many have told me, however, that my letters read very stiffly; so what am I do do? Enroll in a literary charm school? Whatever the case, please understand that we worriers think often of you there. | <br>Does this letter seem abysmally stark or professional?
