I'm enclosing a letter4 to you which you will please show to Mr. Doty5. He can surely wait to see me until October 10th.
I am delighted6 to get those stories on the move. Yes, three hundred fifty is all right.
Please try "Little Annie"7 on "McClure's"8 and "Everybody's."9 If it's not gone when I return to N. Y.10 perhaps we can try the "Smart Set."11 Did they—Smart Set—refuse Kitty, the "Scandal"12 one?
STEAM HEATI am sending the story13, or rather the fragment of a story under another cover.
Please me let me hear from you if Doty thinks it
promises to be interesting. If you show him the letter I am sending you, I won't
have to write him, too. I'm doing a lot of walking and mountain climbing as well as
working very hard, and I want to get out of letter-writing in so far as I can.
When Doty is through with MS, please get it back to me.
Yours W. S. Cather
