Let me say again how grateful I am to you for continuing to represent myself and my son, and that I wish you would let me replace the Steuben glass pitcher. Your “No Visitation” policy, in regards to my family, is reasonable, and my son will one day learn that not everyone enjoys a destructive dare.
As per your request of the tenth, the following is my recollection of the events of Thursday the second, to be used in whatever official capacity you see fit.
My youngest son Harold is a boy of intense passion and abundant imagination. He has been blessed with the oratorical skill of a Cicero or Byrd, and as such is wont to lead. To that end he is the chairman and/or founder of several organizations at the Clifton Academy, among them the Young Mens’ Atlantic Foundation, the Topiary Gaggle, the Apiary Society, and the Society for the Panoramic Study of Indigenous Peoples. And, as is often the case with prodigies, his social graces are what his mother Jane and I have decided to (generously) deem “budding.” (And I do apologize for the vase.)
