[_A letter from Allan Russell, Advertising Manager of the Ginger Cubes
Corporation, to his employer, Mr. Nicholas Ribstone._]
Hippocrates Hospital, April 18.
DEAR BOSS: This is just to say that I am so much better I expect to get
out of here in a few days, and hope to be back “on the job” next week.
Dr. Nichevo says that I have made surprising progress and thinks it
is due to Miss Cumnor’s fine care. She is certainly some nurse. She
and I have gone over those papers you sent me, from the Gray Matter
people, very carefully. Miss Cumnor’s reaction is that we ought to go
slow about signing up with them. She thinks, and I am inclined to agree
with her, that they talk tripe. By the way, you didn’t reply to my
suggestion about our giving her a job in the office. She is certainly a
remarkable woman.
Yours always,
RUSSELL.
