Also two letters, 1936, to Levi Bloom thanking him for sending some cuttings, noting that she enjoyed his article on Joe Jefferson and Henry Watterson, and mentioning Julia Marlowe, the work of her son as an archaelogist, why she lives in England, and the publication of her book in Aug. or Sept.; and an undated note to Lady Monkton thanking her for her charming note from "a sister artist."
