Letter : The Cambridge Arms, Charles St., Baltimore, to [Adelaide W.] Neall [Philadelphia, The Saturday Evening Post, 1936?].

Fitzgerald writes that he is rushing a story to her in the hope of receiving a decision to publish before Christmas. Should she accept the story, he would appreciate some money before Christmas, as his affairs are in poor shape. "If--dare I to ask it & will it influence your judgement on the story?--could you do the unusual thing of wiring me a few hundred to the 1st National Bank in Baltimore? The balance to go thru Ober as usual." Also asks that Mr. Lorimer not be told of the transaction.
