Description
Autograph letter signed. Alston was there for almost two weeks, during which time his lawyers were signing his divorce papers, so she hoped his visit helped him heal, and then he returned to The Hague. Thanks Dorr for being the push to get them back together and says he pushed her to get back to her harpsichord. Will work in May with Alston on the Onderman project in The Hague. Says Thompson feels ill-equipped to help Mel [her husband] and worries that maybe their goals might be opposite. Expresses her wish to be with Dorr. Says she needs to keep her own spirits high. Says she feels close to God and is getting more and more familiar with His work.
