Dear Langston;

A rather informal young people's discussion group has recently been formed at the Washington Heights Library. May we invite you to be their guest on the occasion of their first open meeting which is to be Monday, February 21, at 8:00 P.M.?

I know that the demands on your time are many, but it would be a great inspiration to all of us to have you present at that time.

Dear Mrs. Andrews:

As I informed you in our telephone conversation, Mr. Hughes is out of the city finishing a book and is not scheduled to return until early October. However, I was able to relay your request to him. But due to the urgency of his completeing the book--it was due August 1st, he is unable to spare the rehearsal time necessary for a reading and therefore must refuse your kind invitation to participate in such a significant occasion as the brunch tribute to Lester Granger.

Mr. Hughes asked that I extend to you his regards and best wishes and express his regrets in being unable to share in the tribute to his friend, Lester Granger.
