A Sandburg Stumper

[Rob Wick]

Thank you gentlemen. I definitely feel better, but just wish the doctor had a more concrete diagnosis. In 58 years on this earth this is the first time I ever passed out. I hope it doesn't happen again for another 58 years!

Gene, there is a letter in Sandburg's papers written to Beveridge that was never sent. In it he talks about something he was told that Beveridge supposedly said about him that was very critical, although Sandburg doesn't elaborate. I have a basset hound on my lap right now, or I could find the letter. In Beveridge's Wikipedia page it says that after Beveridge died his widow gave Sandburg his research material, which is absolutely untrue given how each man felt about the other. Also, Worthington C. Ford would have needed the material in order to finish Beveridge's book.

Best
