March a.. 1919.
Dear DR.. Cowlcy:
am in receipt Of your letter of
March 9th in which pou inform
me that DR.. Jobling has sent the
culture Of meningococcuc.
wish particularly to thank you
for the generous remarks at the end
Of your letter. regret that | can
not accept the praise in whole,
since so much depends on early di-
agnosis and efficient serum treat e
ment in accomplishing results. As
far as | know. the results at Berea
thus far have never been surpassed,
If indeed they have been equalled.
On this account | am hoping that
you will write up the epidemic for
publication. If | can help you in
that direction. shall be happy to
be Of service.
Sincerely yours,
Simon Flexner.
