    7 April 1964

    Mr. Charles Didzun

    609 Sixth Street

    Oswego, Oregon

    Dear Charley:

    I thought of you the other day, while my wife and I were at our ranch, at Salmon Creek, Big Sur, California, and we were eating one of the cans of salmon that you had given us - a fine Chinook that you had caught on April 7, 1962. I think that it was the best salmon that I have ever eaten.

    We have had many experiences since our last talk with you. Our trip to Oslo, Norway last December to attend the ceremonies at which the Peace Prize was presented was a great one.

    I think that I told you that my wife and I had bought a 160-acre ranch at Salmon Creek, eight years ago. Now we are just beginning to build a house there, and we plan to spend a major part of our time there. We have only a two-room cabin there now. We have white-faced Hereford cattle, about 30 head.

    I do not know when we shall come to Oregon again, but when we do we are hoping to see you.

    Sincerely yours,

    Linus Pauling:ffd
