Myron Timothy Herrick letter to Anna Bishop [manuscript], 1927 June 21.

Writes to reminisce about his late wife Kitty's life and the "happier times" they shared with Bishop in the past. He writes that "altogether too much credit has been done [him] for [his] part in the young aviator's achievement," but he welcomes commendation from old friends such as Bishop, especially when they awaken "such agreeable memories" as she has. He concludes by saying that he is leaving tomorrow on the Ile-de-France for a short holiday, but hopes that he will have the opportunity to see her while in America.
