24 Clearway Street Boston 15, Mass. November 18,1947

Hilda McLeod Jacob Maine State Library Augusta, Maine

Dear Miss McLeod:

In answer to your letter of November 3rd I can only say that I have not forgotten our correspondence in regard to the paintings which my Uncle, Marsden Hartley, planned to give to the Maine State Library but as the estate is still unsettled I can give you no definite statement as to whether things will work out that way.

Since my main purpose in obtaining legal counsel was to protect the estate from being disposed of without regard to my uncle's wishes, you may be sure that I will make every effort to have the paintings placed in the Maine State Library and am still hopeful that something may be done toward that end.

Sincerely yours, Nor [?]
