Autograph letter signed : Sugar Hill, NH., to Conrad Aiken, postmarked 1926 August 28.

Frost authorizes Aiken to publish Frost's poems in Aiken's 1927 Modern Library anthology Modern American Poets. Frost writes of tennis (which he explains is "neither my vocation nor my avocation: it is my weakness and I am very weak at it"), clothing, and "being held accountable for the United States" if he were to visit Aiken in England. Includes thoughts on the art of letter writing ("I have recently had an entire reinflamation of my ambition to be a great letter writer" without which, according to Mr. Hamlin Garland, one "couldn't be considered for admissions to the inner circle of the American Academy.") He tells Aiken that "later I'll take you on for a stately correspondence such as that of Adams and Jefferson in their old age." Also includes literary gossip on the faltering marriage of Louis Untermeyer, and Untermeyer's work as a poetry anthologist, mentioning poetry by Jean Untermeyer, Virginia Moore, and William Butler Yeats.
