Adams, John Quincy, 1857-1919

Letters to Richard Watson Gilder, editor of the Century Magazine.
1) To Gilder from John Quincy Adams, April 17, 1899. (On stationery of the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.) Has resigned his professorship and means to go abroad "to work out ideas of Art with relation to Political Economy." Intends to spend a year with [Patrick] Geddes co-writing a book on the subject. Also wants to find a way of making the upcoming Paris Exposition "a great educational force--not dormant as most of our expositions are--but a vital force even in the non-technical visitor."
2) To the Editor of the Century from the New York City Art Commission, January 26, 1914. (On the commission's letterhead stationary.) Sends a pamphlet and asks him to publicize the commission's work in the magazine. Signed by Adams as Assistant Secretary.
3) To Gilder from Adams, Philadelphia, November 27, no year. (On stationery of the National Arts Club [New York].) Asks for an introduction to Mrs. Schuyler Van Rensselaer [an architecture critic].
