April 20, 1943

Dear Mr. Dutton:
Your interesting note came the other day.
95 is a mighty flattering mark for
Generation of Vipers.
I seem to have heard of Saints and Sinners.
You're right, so far as I can discern,
about the limitations of the pulpit as a stance for any
real critique of human behavior.
Very swell of you to write me.
Sincerely,
Philip Wylie
