“Dear Mr. Burke:
In 1945 we purchased in New York at the sale of the Frank J. Hogan Library, item No. 7, a copy of EMMA, printed in Philadelphia by Carey in 1816.
Do you still have this book and would you be willing to part with it?”
Yours Sincerely,

Typed, same stationary as letter 1
dated May 3, 1967
“Dear Mr. Burke:
Thank you so much for your letter of May 1st.
I am glad that you still have the copy of EMMA. Our inquiry was for a bibliographic purpose. Someone who is working on the bibliography has asked us about the copy we sold you and naturally we followed through for him.
With best wishes,
Yours Sincerely,
Mabel Zahn
