  • Description

    Autograph letter signed. Mitch apologizes to Dorr for his rudeness. Says he is not a “Whole person” like Dorr and Greta. He spoke of his interests in building - a publishing business, a better political system, or a better San Francisco school system - and thought she [Dorr] belittled these worldly affairs. He feels guilty about Ramparts [magazine] and defensive about it so he attacked her. He appreciates her example and wants to learn from her wisdom.
