Dear Mr. Lamson-ScribnerjWe have received the five autographed, pamphlets
which you sent us. They are a valuable and interesting addition
to our Maine Author ©o llection and we are sincerely appreciative
of your kindness in sending them £o us.
In accordance with your suggestion, we are sending to you
to be autographed the two Maine items , "Weeds of Maine", and
"Ornamental and Useful Plants of Maine".Will you please add to the
latter a notation to the effect that a second part was not published'We have
this information in our catalog but it will be more interesting to
have it in the pamphlet in your writing.
*
We lave the three volumes of your work "American Grasses",
as published by the U. S. D. A. Division of Agrostology,Bulletins
7, 17 and 20. Was It ever issued in book form?

Mr. P. Lamson-Scribner,
1849 California Street, NW.
Washington, D. G.
Dear Mr. Eamson-Scribner;While looking over your" Ornamental apid
Useful Plants of Maine", privately printed for you in Augusta
Maine, I noticed that it was your intention at that time to
publish a second pamphlet.My search has failed to reveal this
pamphlet. I wonder whether it was ever printed.Any information
you can send me will be greatly appreciated.
While you were born in Mass achusetts we feel that
you really belong to Maine, Therefore, I think you may be interested
in our Maine Author Colledtion. We have a special exhibition collection
of works by Maine authors,giving special attention to living
authors,so that it is possible to acquire autographed copies of
their books.If there are any of your books or pamphlets which
you are willing to autograph and send us for this collection we shall
be delighted to receive them.
(Signed ) HED
