Autograph letter signed : Missoula, Montana, to Gordon N. Ray, 1951 November 19.

Thanking him for his kindness to her during her stay in Indiana; recounting her recent and hectic schedule with its numerous engagements at colleges and universities throughout the United States, mentions meeting Mark Schorer and Wallace Stevens, notes that she finds the climate of the Northwest boringly similar to that of Ireland and England, promises to discuss with her husband the proposal that she work for a semester at the University of Illinois, and requests that he forward any letters that might arrive for her to the care of Eudora Welty.
