Frances Hodgson Burnett papers, 1926 [manuscript].

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/706832742

This collection contains only one item: a typed letter from Burnett's son, Vivian, to Mrs. May Rowland, hostess of the Sunshine Club at the Mississippi State Sanatorium (for the treatment of tuberculosis). The club promoted patient welfare and entertainment and also organized fund-raisers for the sanatorium. When Vivian Burnett wrote Rowland in 1926, he stated that the items he included (a signed copy of "The One I Knew Best of All," and the full script of a preface to The Drury Lane Boys Club) would hopefully fetch a fair price at one of the Sanatorium's fund-raisers. The de Grummond Collection has several of Frances Hodgson Burnett's books, including The Drury Lane Boys Club, but the other items her son said he included with the letter are not in our possession.
