MY DEAR BLANCHE,
What an admirable reporter you would be! Your account of the meeting with Miller in the restaurant and of the "entertainment" are amusing no end. * * * By the way, I observe a trooly offle "attack" on me in the Oakland "Times" of the 3rd (I think) * * * (I know of course it means me -- I always know that when they pull out of their glowing minds that old roasted chestnut about "tearing down" but not "building up" -- that is to say, effacing one imposture without giving them another in place of it.)
