Letters of Sarah Norcliffe Cleghorn [manuscript], 1915-1938.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/647874776

Two letters from Cleghorn to Franklin Pierce Adams, dated September 26 and 29, 1915 express her appreciation of his efforts to get her poems published in "The conning tower" of the New York Tribune. Correspondence, 1938, between Franklin P. Adams and Bruce Bliven concerns reprinting Cleghorn's poem "The golf links lie so near the mill" in "The new republic." In a letter dated February 17, Adams asks Bliven to reprint the poem, originally published in "The conning tower" on January 23, 1915, but with a different version of one line. In a letter to Adams dated February 18, Bliven agrees to print the poem; and a letter dated February 25 requests permission to print Adams' letter accompanying Cleghorn's poem in the correspondence column.
