Autograph letter signed : The Berkeley, New York, to Mrs. [Amelia Stone] Quinton, 1884 Apr. 2.

Announcing that she has just finished Ramona, which will run in the Christian Union serially before book publication, and requesting that Mrs. Quinton send mailing lists of people involved in her charitable organization, so they can be invited to subscribe. "I am going to strike for the Churches this time. I do not dare to think I have written a second Uncle Tom's Cabin--but I do think I have written a story which will be a good stroke for the Indian cause."
