Miss Elizabeth Coatsworth Chimney Farm Nobleboro, Maine

Dear Miss Coatsworth: When your distinguished husband calls at the library with the inscribed copy of NORTHERN FARM for the Maine Author Collection (he told me in Portland that he would!), we hope you will come, too. We missed your annual summer visit last year.

We wish we could hope that you might bring your new book, but we observe that we must wait till October for THE LITTLE HAYMAKERS. Advance notices promise us another of your delightful books for young people, and we eagerly await its publication. Good luck to it, and we hope the Maine Author Collection may have the good fortune to include an inscribed copy.

Sincerely yours

In Charge of Maine Author Collection
