James Wilson was a special pleasure. I enjoyed the dinner, the stimulating
conversation, and, most of all, your gracious hospitality. Many thanks."
Bradley has handwritten a postscript: "Liz & Pat - Thanks again. It was
too brief but good, particularly Wilson. WILLIAM WARREN BRADLEY (b.
1943), a Princeton graduate and Rhodes Scholar, captained the
