George S. Hale letters to Miss Adams [manuscript], 1896, 1897.

In a letter, 1896 June 24, Hale writes that he has not forgotten her but is not yet found what he is looking for to verify something. A magazine photograph of Hale is included. In a letter, 1897 June 17, Hale expresses his appreciation for Miss Adams having reported "me and my cause aright," and regrets his "Baconian joke." He notes that Mary Cowden Clarke won't admit it was a quote from Shakespeare, but that he can't find it, and perhaps he himself, and not Bacon, wrote Shakespeare. He has modified his paper.
