  9th July, 1963.

  Dear Crellin,

  Thank you very much for your letter of the 2nd July and for the toys which have come. I am sorry not to get a letter off to you about them earlier but things have been hectic and my correspondence techniques have gone for a burton.

  I would really rather like to get rid of that Merc. It doesn't do me any good there and I won't ever use it again and I could use the money. I do not wish to restore the darn thing and don't think you should spend your time doing it either. If you can afford large amounts of time why don't you spend it doing things that are more fun like sailing, making love, making money. I do not know why Linus indicated that I am not anxious to get rid of it. I have other to me more important things to worry about. I would much rather have the money.

  Perhaps the old Porsche ought to have its gear box fixed. It probably wouldn't cost very much and then the car might work. If Linus would supply a good engine and drive train that would easily fit in, then perhaps that ought to be put in.

  Thank you again for the toys, I shall figure out a way of getting some money to you sometime. We are having lots of fun with them.

  My house is going terribly slowly. I wish it would go faster because I want to get into it.

  Julia is a bit unwell but I guess she staggers on. The children are fine. They grow up very quickly.

  With much love,
