Dear Mr. Farrell:

I acknowledge with thanks your letter of October 27th, as well as your magazine. Although we don't handle magazines or books written in French, I will put the magazines up on a rack, and maybe somebody will buy one.

I say "somebody" because it will be a person I don't know because the people I do know who come in here don't read French or magazines.

A number of people have been asking about THE YOUNG MAH-HOOD OF STUDS LONIGAN and I am sorry to hear that it will not be published until January.

Perhaps, as you say, you may be coming to Chicago around Christmas time, and if you do, be sure and stop in. In the meantime, I look forward to receiving your poems.

Dear Mr. Farrell:

One of our valued clients, Mr. Earl J. Brady, is an en-
thusiastic admirer of your work, and has asked whether
it would be possible to arrange to have you inscribe
his first edition of YOUNG LONIGAN.

Since Mr. Brady's enthusiasm is so genuine, we hope you
will do this for him, and we will forward the book to
you wherever you specify. It would be wrapped double,
with return postage provided, so that you could return
it to us with the minimum of trouble.

Too, we have now taken a number of orders for your new
book, JUDGMENT DAY, and we wonder if you would be good
enough to inscribe these for our customers when it is
published, in April.

We will be grateful for your cooperation, and in
anticipation of a favorable response, we are
