Dear Mr. Neal,

Mr. Hughes has asked me to send you this short story by Rupert Picott of which we spoke on the phone and which Mr. Picott gave his permission to Mr. Hughes to submit for publication. Since Rupert Picott has recently left Paris where he had been living for a couple of years, I do not have his address at present, but I am sure that he will be in touch with me eventually, so, if you wish to communicate with him you may use Mr. Hughes' address above. He is about 24 years-old I think and was one of the first Negro students to attend the University of Virginia, but quit.
