From this letter we learn that Bill Nevis has taken Hazel and Laura on a visit to New York City, where they spent time with Leonard and Pat. Leonard is now planning to go to school but may take a summer job before departing New York. Later in his life Leonard complained he had not been able to implement innovations to the family business because his father was stubbornly opposed to any changes, and at the same time, when he saw his brother Arnold able to attend medical school at Harvard, he decided he, too, wanted to go to medical school rather than continue in the family firm.
