passage written by Cather on separate enclosure. | written text |
Several days ago I sent the card which you wished me to sign. I had just returned from Canada3 and was in the midst of unpacking, so that at that time I could not express myself further. I remember your letter of last May and since that time have taken it for granted that an amendment4 so contradictory to the aims of both the Institute and the Academy would naturally be recinded. If I am in or near New York2 on November 14, I will certainly be present at the annual meeting.
Very sincerely yours, Willa Cather
