1987. A typed letter signed by Greene, written to the editor of The Commonweal lengthily denying the published account by Christopher Buckley regarding Greene and the circumstances surrounding his attendance at a Mass by Padre Pio. Greene goes point by point through half a dozen falsehoods and says he trusts "the lies in this story will be corrected before it appears in book form." (The book is Once a Catholic.) The letter is typed on two 6x9 pages; folding for mailing; else fine. [#036702] $750
