Appreciates her invitation to submit a poem or poems for Poetry, but does not have anything to send at present. Looks forward to seeing the first issue.   Willa Sibert Cather   [Stout #243]


To Edgar Lee MastersFeb. 9, [1919?]HRC 

Glad he likes "Grandmither." Seldom writes verse. Unfortunately, the poems Monroe included in her noted anthology [The New Poetry, 1917] were garbled. Sorry to have been without a telephone, so missed hearing from him when he was in town.   Willa Cather   [Stout #450]

Hopes she enjoys her summer at the Bread Loaf Inn. There are too many people she [Cather] knows in Paris just now; is going away to Aix and Switzerland.   Willa Cather   [Stout #689]


To Mrs. George WhicherAug. 23, [1930], from Grand Hotel, Aix-les-BainsPM 

Glad she is getting to have the year in Europe she was wanting when they talked in Jaffrey, but regrets they won't be able to see each other. Will be in Aix until early September and plans to sail for Quebec on September 20. Expects to be in Jaffrey again in October. P.S.: Hambourgs are in Austria.  Willa Cather   [Stout #697]


To Mrs. George WhicherSept. 5, [prob. 1923], from Aix-les-BainsPM

Sorry she won't be able to see him in New York after Christmas; will be in Red Cloud. Sorry to hear about Mrs. Whicher's problem. Appreciates his asking her to come up for [to give?] the Clyde Fitch lectures, but can't do so this year. Maybe in a year or two.   Willa Cather   [Stout #762]
