Repository: Harvard University, Houghton Library, Cambridge, Mass.

To Ferris Greenslet, March 28, 1915, from no. 5 Bank Street, New York ; Harvard

Is sending most of the novel. About 20,000 words yet to write. Believes it is very good. Feels envious of Doubleday's sales methods. Houghton Mifflin ought to push this book more than they did O Pioneers! Parts of the story are drawn from her early years, including the death of the railroad man, which happened when she was about thirteen. Story is full of the West. Has hit it with this one! Willa Cather [Stout #295]
