Summary
Acknowledging the opposition by Cather for reproducing her early work, but some of it has come into the public domain; questioning his comments in his book, Cavalcade of the American novel, about Cather's stories, "On the divide" and "Eric Hermannson's soul" having been rewritten by her teacher, based on talking to Mr. and Mrs. George Seibel who disagree with that statement; hoping he will review her new book, which the proceeds go to the Willa Cather Pioneer Memorial in Red Cloud; asking if he saw the codicil in her will.
Discussing reprinting Cather's early work, despite her wishes; discussing her publication on Cather.
