Dear Thorfin:
I haven't heard anything regarding the Rochester job, and I have just written a letter to Valentine, in which I said that I had learned from you that the matter had been discussed with you in a preliminary way and that I wanted to renew my recommendation of you for the position. I did not say anything at all about the change in your situation at Chicago, but put in a lot of stuff about your suitability for the position.
I am looking forward to receiving the manuscript and your notes on the hemoglobin work, I would be disappointed now in case the salt effect calculation did not come out right. When the data arrives, Jack and I shall work them over for awhile.
Yours,
LP:HB
