TLS, one page, 8 x 10, Skibo Castle letterhead, August 4, 1909. Letter to Edward Bok at the Ladies Home Journal. In full: “I appreciate the honor implied by being asked to contribute to your Journal, but I have so much to do these days that it must wait until the spirit moves me. The tempting bait of Five Hundred Dollars that you hold out to me in these dull times may land the fish—some day,—who knows? With kind regards.” Central horizontal and vertical fold, some mild toning and wrinkling, and a small tear to left edge, otherwise fine condition.
