Dear Mary:

Brian Friel has doubtless got in
touch with you and told you that I pro-
mised to forward to you this short story
"The Airgun" for Threshold. I hope it
is suitable. I am sorry about the
typing. If I had more time I would
have made still another draft, but I
tend to correct and correct ad infinitum.

With best wishes.

Yours sincerely,

(John Boyd)
