Dear little love: Today I haven't been able to read a nice letter from you, which is, I expect, waiting for me in Ithaca. I'll be glad to learn that you got home safely and that all of our sweet little children are all right. Please do not work too hard, little love of Paddy's.
It has been clear but cold in Ithaca. This morning I rose at 7, had breakfast, and left at 8
10
with Hamp & Spring, riding with Hamp in the front seat. The ride over the Catskills was wonderful - beautiful views of the valleys. There was ice along the creeks. On reaching here ^ at 12
20
we had lunch with Dr Bacon in Union College, went to the GE Labs, where I talked with Hull, Dushman, Bill Shocley (who is visiting here for a day), and then heard at 4 a seminar talk by Seitz. Then at 5 I came to the hotel, thought about my lecture, and at 6
30
we had dinner with about 40 ACS members at Union College. At 8 we went to the " " Chem. Lab., and I gave my lecture from 8
15
to 9
15
, with about 120 auditors. There was discussion until 9
30
, when I said we should stop, and I was asked questions privately until 10
30
. The audience seemed to enjoy the lecture. You see that my day, while busy, has not been exciting - you are the exciting influence in my life. I wish that you had been with me - especially that you were here now! I didn't sleep well last night, and shall now go to bed early, with plans to meet H. & S. for breakfast at 9, and to drive back then. I adore you, little sweetheart.
Your own loving
Linus.
