March 30, 1935
Dear Cousin Ednah:-
Thank you for your letter of March 20th and for the beautiful fan which came shortly after the letter. I am perfectly delighted with this and feel that it will be a great addition to my collection. To me it appears very quaint and lovely.
In regard to your Mother's letters: I should be very glad to have them, though I must warn you that I should probably be obliged to keep them sometime before I could give them attention. I am sure they are very interesting and that they will more than repay the most careful study, but just at present my schedule is terribly over-crowded.
I had a new book published in October, "The Safe Bridge," which I think you might enjoy, as it is an historical novel in which Newbury figures rather largely. I have an article in Good Housekeeping (underlined) this month, and I expect to have one in the next two months. Travel articles have appeared in various newspapers to numerous [?], but the Hawaiian material has not yet come out in a magazine. When definite plans for this are made I will let you know. I am writing a weekly article wherever I happen to be--and have been ever since fall--for both the Laconia Evening Citizen (underlined) and the Honolulu Star Bulletin (underlined).
I returned to Washington early in December very much improved in health, as my trip through Central America and the Hawaiian Islands did wonders for me in this respect. I have had an extremely busy winter and it looks as if April, as usual, would be the most crowded month of all.
With renewed expressions of gratitude for your lovely gift, and of your appreciation of my work,
Affectionately yours,
