Dear Dr. Freis:

Though my congratulations are belated, I've
just now .learned that you've 'received the
Albert Lasker Medical Research Award for
Clinical Research.  I was proud to know of
this latest honor and well-deserved recog-
ni tion.

I will always remember with gratitude and
admiration your help and many kindnesses.
Mrs. Johnson joins me in warm best wishes.
