1Thank you very much for promise of reviews. Yes, I don’t think
2I’ll publish the “Dreams” till I’ve brought out a novel. But I
3don’t know when that will be! I’ve three stories finished besides
4the one I am working at. But when it comes to the point of publishing
5I never want to!!
6
7If a Miss Duck calls upon ^you^, it is by my recommendation. She is my
8type writer & I am very much pleased with her work, & would be glad if
9you could recommend her to some of your authors.

11^Yours^
