Dear Max:
In answer to your letter, I may say that I would be delighted to sign a certificate of nomination of Kendrew and of Crick to the Royal Society. I would put them in this order - that is, Kendrew first.
I shall be in Pasadena pretty steadily from now until the middle of August.
My wife and I too were pleased to learn about Peter's having a lectureship in University College.
With best regards, I am
Sincerely yours,

Dear Peter:
Thanks for the manuscript. I have been so busy the last couple of days that I haven't been able to go over it, but I shall do so after getting back from Washington. Mamma and I are going there tomorrow, in order that I may appear on a TV program, called Meet the Press, on Sunday.
I enclose a letter that came from the Treasury Department. It looks as though it contains a check.
Linda is in the same shape--perhaps slightly larger shape. She is feeling very well.
Much love from
