Letter from Ernest Hemingway to Charles Scribner ; 21 Oct. 1940. All matters are being fixed up so Martha [Gellhorn] and I can get married in November. Her idea of fun after that is to go to the Burma Road. I wish to Christ she had written this book and I was marrying her. But I like everything once it starts so I guess I will like the Burma Road and then will probably want to stay out on the Burma road and Martha will want to go to Keokuk Iowa. |

Letter from Ernest Hemingway to Maxwell Perkins ; Hong Kong, 29 April. I was glad to get your letters of April 4th and April 11th when flew in here from Rangoon last night. The last leg of the trip from Kunming (Yunnanfu) to here was pretty bad and when we got over Hongkong the statig was so bad the telefunken would not work and with a 200 foot ceiling we circled for nearly an hour before we could get down through. Have flown 18,000 some miles since I saw you last and have about 12,000 more to fly before see you again. Wish I was paid by the mile instead of by the word. I had a wire from Charley, two in fact, in answer to one I sent him from Chungking asking about the sale and another I sent saying I was not happy of having no word from any of you nor not too happy about the sale or lack of it. |

Letter from Ernest Hemingway to General Charles T. Lanham ; 11 Sept. 1950. But I do know fighting people of all kinds, painters, diplomats, thieves, gangsters, politcians, jockeys, trainers, bull fighters, many beautiful women, great ladies, the beau monde, the fast International sporting house set, professional killers, every sort of gambler, Madame Chang Kai Chek and both her sisters, the good one and the bad one, rapid anarchists, socialists, democrats, communists and monarchists and so I guess if you are guilty by association I plead guilty on the above counts. |
