Letters to and from Patrick from over the years. I am attempting to remove last names in the interest of privacy. Many of his old letters are undated. When that happens I make an educated guess (in terms of posting dates for this web site) but I could be wildly off in some cases.

Here’s a letter from Fred to Pat and Mari talking about writing, and segregation in the south, and rejection, and travel.
Here’s an undated letter from Alice Berridge and others to Patrick and Mari. I suspect it’s from 1962 or 1963 because of the Izmir reference. JPI’m the son of Patrick of Meadows.

Fred opens with “There are complications” and closes with “Men are sometimes masters of their fates — but on only the […]
Here’s a letter from Fred to Patrick from the early 1960s in New York, with a reference to Mari. I’m guessing this is early 1963 (I arbitrarily gave it a date of 3 March 1963) but I’ll need to research the timing of Patrick’s purchase (and subsequent near-demise) of the Zambak.
Here’s a letter from 10 December 1962 to Patrick about some of his stories. (I don’t know which ones.) I’m not sure who “dmy” is – can someone identify the sender for us? PatrickPatrick Meadows 1934 – 2017. patrick-meadows.com
