I received some things that Enrique sent me although not the medicine for which I asked him. It seems that your ruffian of a husband forgot it. The stockings are very pretty but not as good as I wished. (Paragraph) Summer has now arrived on our beautiful island and it is terribly hot. The good thing about it is that we go to the beach every weekend and enjoy nature very much. I hope that you will come to spend some days with us and enjoy our beautiful beaches which your husband, who lived on them before, likes so much. I believe that he was more often in the water than on land. (Paragraph) Things here are progressing since we are working rather a lot and hard (with) Fidel as always setting the example and always stimulating the people. He is a real leader. (Paragraph) Well don't be false and write. Greetings.' 3. Pouching letter 20 May as not certain of outcome para two PARI 1546 arrangements." - - - For the unredacted version see: https://www.archives.gov/files/research/jfk/releases/2021/docid-32378674.pdf
