Summary
Thanking him for a copy of his book "Jenny Lind" and discussing the reviews it has received; informing him that a first draft of the book by (Albert Bigelow) Paine (i.e. "Life and Lillian Gish") is finished and that he wants to put it aside "so as to have a cleared eye for cutting"; informing him that she has not heard from "Miss Greyfield" but she would be pleased to see her if she would send word; mentioning that she has a restful visit to Europe and feels fit for work again, and that she has three plays to choose from but that it is difficult to find anything she liked as well as "Uncle Vanya."
