My dear Langston:

I am rather late in acknowledging
the autographed copy of "Fine Clothes to
The Jew" which you were good enough to
send me, and it is because I have been
simply postponing it from time to time on
account of the pressure of work under which
I was laboring.

You have some very fine things in this
book. I especially like some of the things in
the Glory Hallelujah section, but to my mind
the finest thing in the book is "Brass
Spitoons." I should like some time to talk
over the whole book with you. I hope we
will have the opportunity the next time you
are in New York.

Wishing a big sale and great success,
for the book, I am

Sincerely yours,

J. WELDON JOHNSON
