Got the books off to White. People from Boni and Liveright and from Collier's and Ladies' Home Journal came to tea and brought copies of the Tribune article by Mrs. Norris.

Sending quotation from William Allen White. Please return it. Miss Lewis has had a relapse and they couldn't get a nurse. What is the doctor calling the bug he has? Sorry he didn't see Knopf. Viola Roseboro' has been telling her she can't find a copy of Ántonia.

Shocked that he would attribute the reports from Chicago to "investigators." They were people she knew. Will read Miss Singmaster's book when she can, but has seen many of her manuscripts in the past and they never had any particular interest.   Willa Cather   [Stout #499]
