Below is the transcription from a letter in the Richard L. Meiling, MD Collection.

Mr. John W. Galbreath

October 13, 1971

Dear John:

Again, my deep appreciation for the kind invitation to attend the World Series game on Tuesday in Pittsburgh. It was indeed a most enjoyable day and I was happy that I could be present when Pittsburgh won.

This was my first World Series game, and both Liz and I spoke about the events some 11 years ago when you were so kind as to invite me to accompany Liz as her obstetrician to the game. I’m still most pleased that we didn’t make the trip 11 years ago–that all came out well–and that I finally, in 1971, saw Pittsburgh again in the World Series. We will be pulling for them to take the Series this weekend.

Sincerely,

Richard L. Meiling, M.D.
