My dear Neill:
I agree with you that you should not include any chapter on
orgone energy in your book if you feel that you cannot do it.
We had a Christmas full of strain and worries, full of conferences
with lawyers, doctors, etc. because of the pestilential attacks on us. The
investigation is still going on, and our lawyer will take court action
against the administration.
Thank you very heartily for the picture of Zoe. She is a lively child
and a new promise. Peter is growing into a smart little fellow. We are
very good friends.

I have been to Scotland seeing my folks. I don't understand
how you can take action against the Administration, for it is seldom if
ever done over here.
I am feeling lonely again; no one to talk to here, and I have staff
trouble again, with a man criticising me to visitors and never saying
a word to me. But S'hill has always attracted neurotics who want to
take my place, the fools.
