To Mariel, Ellen, and Frances [Gere], Allie [Althea Roberts], and Maysie [Mary Ames]Jan. 2, 1896 from "Siberia" ; WCPM 

Enjoyed visiting Katharine and her brother, who is more charming than ever. Quoted Ella Wheeler Wilcox to each other. Attended New Year's dance with Douglass—a rustic event. Could Mariel retrieve her [Cather's] copy of Daudet's Sapho from Sarah Harris? Doesn't know when she will be back in Lincoln. Here in the country might as well be dead. Is indifferent to everything, even suicide.    Willa   [Stout #21]


To Roberts Walker [at 115 Broadway, New York]May 15, 1911Indiana 

Is sending this by messenger, along with a letter from William Archer, who was in Mexico to do a story and has been stranded on his way back to New York aboard the Merida. Please send a letter she can send to Mr. Archer.   Willa Sibert Cather   [Stout #193]


To Mary AustinFeb. 10, 1927, from New YorkHuntington 

Enjoyed her letter. She shouldn't regret being away from New York; terrible weather and no good plays. Is sending The Time of Man [ Roberts ], which is being much talked of. Doesn't find it interesting herself.   Willa Cather   [Stout #874]


To Miss Walker [for Margaret Cousins]Feb. 17, 1936HRC 

Appreciates the invitation, but doesn't write many short stories and gives Lane [of Woman's Home Companion] the first chance at them.   Willa Cather   [Stout #1296]
