Colum writes Charles Burgess at Kansas State Teachers College.

Tell me news about yourself. What’s happening about the Wheelock anthology? The weather here is extraordinarily mild (the summer was wretched) and I’m able to visit many interesting places. I feel tempted to do a new Roads in Ireland book. A happy Christmas.” In fine condition, with a couple of creases through the signature and some handling wear.
