http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/722419229

Collection contains the last page of her short story "Marigold-Michel" published in The Atlantic Monthly, volume 79, March 1897, together with handwritten title pages to "Marigold-Michel" and "The open door." A letter to a Miss Jacobsen, 1878 December, sends a requested autograph and notes that her "young girl friends" delight and encourage her and are "truer critics" than professionals. In a letter to James R. Osgood & Co., Howard discusses payment for "Guenn," the illustrations, and her copies. A reference to Mr. Simmons may refer to Edward Simmons on whom the character of Everett Hamor was based. The collection also contains two calling cards with autograph messages to friends; and a clipping, 1877 July 16, "Miss Howard in Germany."
