Dear Barker:
I have your letter of November 29. The news of Dr. Moore is much
better. He was operated on last Monday. They found glioma of the right
temporal lobe. They wer e unable to remove it, but the doctor believes,
according to Mrs. Moore, that if he recovers from the operation, the re-
lief of pressure will give him at least several years of additional use-
fulness Since it is now a week since his operation, I assume his chances
of recovery from it are very good. He will not be able to have visitors
for another week or two, so I do not expect to see him before that time.
The doctors estimate it will be four orr five weeks before he recovers from
he
the operation, so that I assume that would be quite unable to come to New
York as early as January 5.
The time is not so good for me as I have to be in Cleveland the pre-
vious week at the meeting of the American Association.
However, since you were counting on Dr. Moore, and have no one else
to take his place, I feel some obligation in replacing him. May I inquire
what your arrangements with him were in regard to retainers for readiness
to serve, if there were any? I remember that he told me once that he would
ask for such an arrangement.
Please give me some information about the Tuck and Metz cases.
With best regards,
Sincerely yours,
s. C. find
S. C. Lind,
Director.
