Mom, So Sorry I made you blue!! You took them as orders and I did mean them that way.

Reasons – I wanted to find out if you would quit if I told you too.
Reason for Cancellation – I promised you that you could work until May 30 no later.. and I try not to go back on my word. If you make up your mind to quit before it is entirely up to you for if you did it would be nice to have you home. I remain yours. N.Y. correspondent, pop
