I was so very sure that I had acknowledged your letter with the Eli Terry paper that I was at a loss to understand the postal department tracer that arrived at my door - and now I find your letter beneath a pile of correspondence on my desk. Please accept my apologies, and know that I wouldn't have had it happen for the world. I think the way of it was this. I spent three weeks abed with grip right after Xmas, and then my wife was down for a similar length of time - and then my play went into production and college closed due to oil heat shortage and I was nearly mad trying to keep it in rehearsal. It's all over now - and I inclose (sic) a program - you will be interested to know that it revolved around a Terry shelf clock, and that I was able to borrow a real one for the setting. Do you happen to know what has happened to J.E. Coleman of Nashville, Tennessee? I can't raise him by letter and I expect he's in the Navy again. Do you ever hear from him? I shall treasure the Langdon bill. Am I right in reading it "To Balce of a/c" "To Balance of account"? Sincerely, Les Jones.	Leslie Allen Jones	1942
