Dear Miss McLood, Of course I shall be glad to sign and send a copy or Alice to the library when they are sent to me next month. Both Henry and I are indebted to the library for a thousand courtesies and assistances, to prove which I shall immediately ask for more courtesy and assistance! Have you some book that deals with the work of the Underground Railway before the civil war - not necessarily in Maine? And if you have, will you send it to me? And some one spoke of a delightful book of early life in Maine, I think about this district, whose title began "Incidents and Anecdotes of - " at this important point my memory fails me. Was it of the Sheepscott Region? was it Early Settlements along Casco Bay? was it..? I can telephone and find out if the beginning of the title doesn't happen to suggest easily the end.

Yours sincerely,

Elizabeth Coatsworth Beston
