Summary
Wishing she went to France with her; informing her that the proofs of "Pioneers" have begun to come, but she hasn't looked at them yet; mentioning that she is somehow "down" about it and doesn't know why; talking about the slight delay in sending Harrison the manuscript because Sergeant let Mrs. Muirhead see it; saying that since she separated herself from the story, she doesn't get a thrill out of it anymore; discussing Olive Fremstad, who is overwhelming.
