I would be hard to please if I were not pleased about your success4 with this last
story5. I have been kept here by the illness of my mother6 and that story was very carelessly
written. Will you ask Harpers7 to let me have the
manuscript when I return to New York8 at
Thanksgiving so that I can better the English a little? It is very clumsy, clumsy, especially in the first part of
the story. I shall have another Kitty
Ayrshire9
story10 to send you soon.
