To the Editors of the _Southern Review_:

I believe that Dr. Kendrick's and my review
might better be called, "Is there regionalism
in Odum's _Southern Regions_?".

And I regret that in the hurry of cutting, ar-
ranging, etc. our material I was guilty of in-
troducing an indefinite modifier or something
of the sort. On the top of page 2 either omit
the sentence beginning "Although" or let it
read "Hammond, while discharging the duty of
setting forth the advantages of the State for-
immigrants, had loftier purposes in view and
made the Handbook a veritable mine of information
about South Carolina." Then on the top of page
4 I used the word "excision" where "exclusion"
was what I meant. Let the sentence read, "Had
the exigencies of time and duties been less he
might have completed the exclusion."

I hope to do a more finished piece of work for
you on some other occasion.
