To the Group,


In order that credit may be given where credit is due, permit me to
mention that Mr. Moody is quite right when he mentions in this
message that he had sent me a copy of this article by Professor
Sawyer. Let me assure everyone on the list that Stewart Baldwin
was unaware of my having received this from Mr. Moody and, in
fact, I had forgotten it myself and have had to search back through
my records to find that he not only sent me this article but also
sent me an article by the late Dr. Nora Chadwick which, un-
fortunately I am unable to locate at the moment.


In spite of what Mr. Moody might think, the copy of the article I
furnished Professor Baldwin was one I had requested and received
from the publisher of the book in which the article appeared, and
which they happily supplied me free of charge inasmuch as the
book was out of print and they were unable to sell me a copy.


And I do very much like to give credit where credit is due.


Best regards to all on the list,


Jack K. Brown
