Your letter gives me a joyful surprise（2）. Your English is astonishingly good. This is not “flannel ”nor“ butter”（3） but my sincere opinion (my hand upon my heart!). The idea found from your version of Chairman’s statement is, to say the least, quite unjust（4）. Perhaps your hand is recovering some of its old cunning momentarily lost through long lack of practice（5）. At any rate, it would be a pity-nay, a sin, a crime（6）-to let your(7) English get rusty & become finally unserviceable.
Yours in haste
By a slip of pen, you wrote “allocation” instead of “Collocation”(8).This is a mere peccadillo. Don’t let meticulousness about such trifles cramp your style.
