Papers of Mary Mapes Dodge, 1875-1897.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/32136440

The papers contain one to three page manuscripts or fragments for "A Day in Colorado," "Donald and Dorothy," "The Two Mysteries," "Whose?," "Over the World" and "Hans Brinker; or The Silver Skates." Letters to Thomas Niles and William Carey comment on Donald and Dorothy mentioning royalty payments, the non-illustrated edition, the plates, value of the manuscript, the writing and manuscript preparation, possibility of an additional chapter or sequel and hopes for its success. In other letters she answers queries by Epes Sargent, sends verses for anonymous publication, rejects two manuscripts for St. Nicholas Magazine but will publish a chapter of one, cancels a publication agreement with Roberts Brothers and switches to Century Company, favors ratification of the International Arbitration Treaty, extends an invitation, and gives personal news.
