December 18, 1950 Mr. Kenneth Rob·erts Kennebunk port Maine Dear Mr. Roberts: Mrs. Stubbs .says to tell you that we are deeply appreciat ive of your offer to present the copy of the Casco Bay grant, and that we shall be happy to accept it and to have it framed. Not knowing the exact size, we cannot promise just where it will make its framed appearanc e, but we will hope to find a spot that is noticeable and that will show the document to advantage .

We will go to work at once on the Stephens inquiry, and let you know what we discover. This library does not have fiction for individua l loan, so that although we have all the Stephens books in the Maine Author Collectio n, they are not in the lending section of the library. We do have calls for them, however, and very likely would have more, if we stocked fiction. Personally , we think your proposal to Doubleday a fine one, and hope that it will materiali ze. Sincerely yours MAINE STATE LIBRARY By hmj

Secretary
