I say that despite what Mary said (such as Tad writing to Sally Orne). Is there other specific evidence of Tad really writing letters to people?

There does not seem to be any actual evidence. The clearance reference is that Mary wrote she received a letter from Tad while traveling in Europe, but that could have been dictated. But he seemed to come across as intellectually average, at least, on his return to America. Perhaps he had some sort of processing disorder that made working with words difficult.
