Dear Mr. Hartley:

With delight we read of your forthcoming volume of poems, ANDROSCOGGIN, and we look forward with eager anticipation to reading the book.

Of course we shall order a copy £or the general lending section of the library, but we are writing at present to you regarding the Maine Author Collection, which comprises about a thousand volumes, most of which are inscribed and presented for purposes of exhibit only.

Its present interest gives promise of the future value it will hold for students and researchers, and we are always glad when it is possible to include another name in our literary roster, and another volume to its shelves.

We hope you will want to inscribe a copy of ANDROSCOGGIN for this collection, and we assure you that it would give us great pleasure to claim you not only as an artist, but also as a writer of Maine.

Very truly yours
