Dear Mr. Muir:

Since I wrote to you a day or two ago this thought has occurred to me:

I remember that you told me that there was a continual demand for some newspaper letters that were among your earliest writings. I suspect that a good deal of the matter in these newspaper letters might make a good book if you take a good part of it and get it in shape. I know very well …
