TLS, two pages, 6 x 9.25, Hotel Tulsa letterhead, March 17, 1922. Letter to Miss Hortop, in part: “The lovely verse you sent brought a glow to my heart. But I did not need it to know that your dear thoughts have hovered about me on my journeyings. The darling flowers you have sent me from city to city have whispered how sweetly you were thinking of us all. How did you ever find time to gather, and wrap them up so snugly from the cold, that they might gladden me! And your messages too—they have come like a response to my mood. At this moment I feel the sweet discontent awakened by the spring sunshine, and I long to escape from the endless restraints and complex life of the city. In this mood I read your verse about how happy we can be anywhere if we can only touch a flower or enjoy the leafy music of a tree. The words you wrote last Christmas have come back to me cheeringly amid the difficulties of our work, ‘Nothing can take from you a beautiful day, or a splendid hour you have enjoyed.’” In very good to fine condition, with splitting along folds, and light foxing and corner paper loss on the last page.
