passage written by Cather on separate enclosure. | written text |
I am leaving for Canada3 tonight—my secretary4 has already gone—so I can write only a word.
I have an unpublished poem5 of Housman6's which he gave me7 when I had tea with him years ago. I agree with you as to his high place among the English poets. My own manuscripts I never sell, but I thank you for your friendly letter and your expression of esteem.
Cordially Yours Willa Cather
