In the midst of canvassing!!

My dear Mr. Buchan

I can't tell you with what
gratitude & satisfaction I have read
the wonderful reviews of the Biography
& I think you must be pleased
to realize your work has not been
in vain. Not one word of criticism,
simply the most unbounded praise
at the masterly manner in which you
have accomplished your task, & I
cannot refrain from again expressing
my gratitude, as I know you undertook
it to please me & added to your
already overburdened daily tasks, but
