My Dear Mr Whitman
Enclosed please find CK for $12. Please send me at your convenience four copies of L of G. Think I can dispose of orders still & wonder I never thought of it before. Do you remember the graceful willowy reader we heard together—bird-like & feather-like? She is fat.
Yours truly
D. L. Proudfit
