- Letter from LP to Peter Pauling, RE: Asks Peter to tell Dr. Grundfest that he can’t come because he and AHP will not have time to come to Woods Hole. Suggests that Peter write Professor Robert Mulliken of the Physics Department at the University of Chicago to mail him a Chicago paper. Says that he thinks Nottingham is going to pay $50 a month until the $1650 has been paid, but because of the lawyer’s bill they will probably lose money. Says that he has kept the remains of the Lincoln and that they will talk about how it should be disposed after he gets home.

Dear Peter:
Mamma and I are planning to drive home in the Riley. However, we are first going up to Fredericton, New Brunswick, and we shall not have time to come to Woods Hole. Will you please tell Dr. Grundfest that I can't come.
I haven't done anything about getting you a Chicago paper. Why don't you write to Professor Robert Mulliken of the Physics Department, University of Chicago, and ask him to mail one to you.
Mamma and I are planning to make a leisurely trip home after the New York meetings, arriving just before school opens. I suppose that we shall be delayed in seeing you until then.
I think that Nottingham is going to sign up to pay
$50 a month until $1650 has been paid. I don't know how much the lawyer's bill will be - this means that we will come out a little bit in the hole from your use of the Lincoln that night.
As you requested, I have kept the remains of the Lincoln, and I can talk with you about how it is to be disposed of after you get home.
I am still working pretty hard on protein structures. Things are going along well.
Much love from
[Daddy]
