Dr. Albert O. Dekker

Department of Chemistry

Berea College

Berea, Kentucky

Dear Albert:

The Bookstore has about two hundred copies of Dr. Noyes’ “Chemistry of Solutions” on hand and would be willing to sell any number to you for twenty-five cents each. This looks like a bargain to me.

I have not run across Lipscomb yet; and I shall let you know when I get some news about him.

I extend my congratulations to you on the birth of your little girl.

Sincerely yours,

Linus Pauling
