To Dorothy Canfield,
Oct. 10, 1899 from 1176 Murray
Hill, Pittsburgh
; UVt
Is studying Greek and being treated like a goddess. Hasn't seen the Nevins, but they have phoned and he has sent a copy
of Shakespeare's
sonnets. In Chicago had dinner with Mr. Dooley. He and the Peatties encouraged her to come there to work. Mrs. Peattie's new story in Atlantic
["The Man at the Edge of Things," reviewed by Cather Nov. 4]
establishes her as a writer. Was met at the train station by Isabelle, looking beautiful. They have been
walking in the hills and going to concerts. Has read all of Dorothy's letters from Paris. Had a nice visit with May
Willard last night. P.S.: Will tell her about Alfred next time.
