Miss Rachel L. Field 111 East 10th Street New York City

Dear Miss Field:

We are delighted with your generosity. Of course we shall want "God's Pocket," a truly distinctive Maine biography, as well as "Time Out of Mind." We appreciate your kindness in offering to inscribe a copy of each for our Maine Author Collection.

We regret that we have not "Hitty," "Calico Bush," and "Points East" in our collection, but we shall want them, particularly as they are of Maine backgrounds. We are ordering copies sent you from Biblion, Inc., in Boston, and hope that you will be so kind as to inscribe them for us. We enclose a return label and postage.

That the success of the Maine Author Collection depends upon the cooperation and kindness of our authors we realize, and we are always grateful for their help - particularly when we receive such a prompt and generous response as was your. Thank you, and may we assure you of a very cordial invitation should you find it possible to visit our Library and its Maine Author Collection when you are once more in our State.

Very truly yours

Maine State Library
