Dear Joshua:

Thank you for your letter in regard to Gus Nossal's Ph.D.

I interpreted Dean Rogers! letter to mean that we would
need to consult with each other only if we had some question
about endorsing the thesis. I assume from your letter that
you and Burnet have both approved it. I thought it was

an excellent piece of work and have written Dean Rogers
indicating my endorsement,

Has Sir MacFarlane already departed for London? If not, tell
him that he ‘vould be most welcome here in Denver at any time.
With best wishes,

Sincerely yours,

David W. Talmage, M.D.
