<DIV class=RTE><FONT face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif" size=2>Dear Don Rosa,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV class=RTE><FONT face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif" size=2> I was looking at the DCML discussion about HD&Ls 50th anivesery about Bryon Erickson and Bruce Hamilton invited u at a confrence where HDL go looking for there parents what was ur origanal ending was there any ending . Do you think Gemstone would accept your story.Heres one any idea sort of a wierd ending they were going to Donalds house they were having a good time but they wernt sure wether or not they would reconise them or they send a keepsake saying HDL I am very proud of u etc. And then u could wrap it up or somthing with Donald showing the boys a letter from Della. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV class=RTE><FONT face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif" size=2> For" A letter from Home "u said your origanal plan was adding Hortense and Matilda.Edgmont said she was dead and Donald had never seen her again during his childhood how did any one one come up with a conclusion like that are there any facts.If Donald did see Hortense u could use this as a bck up reason ,u dont have to but it might work . Hortense was going to Ludwigs house for Dons birthday present until he tried a project and dissapeered for many years or just say that she didnt abandon him and Della.You could ask gemstone if your allowed to make that change if u can show Donalds early teen life r his mom in any stories.</FONT></DIV></TD></TR>
