West Brooksville, M aine-- Sept. 16th. , 1939. Maine State Library, Augusta Maine. , Miss Hilda McL eod,,Secratary. Dear Miss Mel eod. Since your letter received yesterday has a personal tone besides the official one, I shall take the liberty of addressing you this time. I am of course delighted that the material I forwarded to the State Library is so acceptabl e,,and the letter youe sent me brings me great satisfaction, and I shall of course be glad to send you anything else that may be of historial value,like catalogues, NY. criticisms, etc. I wonder if you could now help me with information on the subject of getting up to Katahdin Lake,which I am told offers the best view for painting purposes,of the great mountain. I have written to Caleb Scribner the game warden who lives at Patten, but as he may be slow in answering, I think it a good idea to address you also. I hear there is only one place to live which is convenient to the best view of the mountain and that is Cobb's Camps which is very expensive,but if I must do it that way, and there is no other, I shall have to do it that way. But if you have, and you might easily have,useful information that would help me to make the grade, I should be very glad of it. I would have to go of course to Millinocket, and I suppose if I went to the Chamber of Commerce in that town, they would tell me how to get there,,and since it is all very expensive I need to know if there is any way of getting there [letter crossed out] less than the Cobb Camp price, which is [letters crossed out] $7.00 one way, which is awful, but you wouldn't be likely to know about things like that probably, though if you have booklets or tourist information,that would help some too. I won't be going up there [letter crossed out] from Bangor before early October,as I want it to be cold enough to avoid rains,as of course sitting
