Vista, California
Dear Mr. Patten:
You are most kind to remember the Maine Author Collection with a copy of your distinguished father's book, MR. FRANK MERRIWELL. We have always felt extremely disappointed that none of his work was in this exhibit collection; we shall always regret the apparent impossibility of including his many earlier works; but we are certainly grateful to you for presenting MR. FRANK MERRIWELL.
We add it with pleasure to the shelves, and with appreciation of his notable career and of your generosity.
Sincerely yours
In Charge of
Maine Author Collection
