Typed Letter Signed, to Naomi Marshall, gratefully declining an invitation to visit Chicago in the spring. 1 page, 4to, personal stationery; minor soiling at lower left, horizontal folds. Atlanta, 16 November 1961 ". . . Because of the present temper of events in this section of the country, I have had to adopt a policy of spending more time in the South. This means that I can accept only a limited number of speaking engagements outside the South in the course of the year. My calendar reveals that I have accepted the maximum number for the Spring of 1962. . . . [I]f things ever let up a bit, we will communicate with you as to the possibility of my coming to Zion. . . ."
