There are 2 staples in the top left corner where the envelope & carbon copy have been attached to Perdue's letter. Very good. <p>Perdue is replying to a letter of encouragement and support from Freudian psychiatrist and criminologist Dr. Arthur N. Foxe who writes: "I have been mindful of your use of the concept of Criminosis psychoneurotic behavior taking the form of criminal or antisocial actsand I have read your article with attention and interest." Foxe knows the concept to be valid from his own experiences and struggles at Great Meadow maximum security prison in the thirties. Perdue replies:"I am deeply honored to have gotten your letter.I have been in the Field of Criminology for only 15 years at this one Penitentiary and it is certainly an honor to have one of the "Criminology Greats" extend a verbal pat-on-the-back as well as encouragment.in a Field of Work still filled with 'amused skepticism' mentioned by you in your recent article."<p>Perdue's thesis was titled "A comparison of the Rorschach responses ot two groups of murderers confined in prison".
