We wish to express our sincere appreciation to the Rev. John G. Magee for his kindness in allowing us to use the poem of his son, John G. Magee, Jr., in the GRANBY 1943. We publish below a letter from the Rev. Magee which we believe contains a message for all of the students of Granby I-ligl1School. -MO t , Q'l'l8 Bancroft place, Washington, D. G, October Q8, 1949. Miss Virginia Ballou, Granby Street l-ligh School, Norfolk, Va. Dear Miss Ballou: Macmillan's have forwarded your letter of October 22nd asking for permission to print my son's poem, ul-ligh Flight , in your Year Book. Of course you can do it, and we are very happy to learn that you are planning to center your Year Book around it. When we received it from our son about October 'l, 1941, we felt that it had a message for American Youth at this time but did not know how we should get it before the youth of this country. l-lis death did that in a most marvelous way. It has literally gone all over the world, and seems to have moved the hearts of many thousands of people all over the world. This has all been an immense comfort to us, and makes us feel that he did not die in vain. If you want to find out- anything about him you could get all the facts you want in l-lermann l'lagedorn's book which we think has been beautifully done. It is not an idealized story, but a perfectly honest one. We did not want anything else, and are hoping that it will be a help and inspiration to many people. All these wonderful things that have been said about John will be something for our three younger sons to keep throughout their lives, as well as being such a comfort to my wife and myself. With every good wish to you, l am, Sincerely yours, eQo22c-awe
