Will you kindly return one of these to us with your signature?We had the pleasure of a call from Mr. Burroughs last week, and he told us how you had been tempting him to go to South America with you, but apparently he is more likely to turn his face eastward and cross the Atlantic, if he leaves the country at all.Yours very truly,Houghton Miffl in Company.[illegible]04802
