Transcription:
at the age of 15 amid the weary never-ending labor of the farm the realm of poetry began to open to him like the dawn of a
glorious day 01548 Monday Morning. Dear Mr. Muir, Will you and Mrs. Muir run your eyes over this M.S.? to see if there
is anything objectionable in it? Please speak plainly, and? anything you wish, and add also what it lacks. I know it is illegible
, My pen is so stiff and awkward and illegible trained. I must ask you to return it at once. I must have it by Friday or the
editor will get after me. Love to all. Hastily Katharine M. Graydon in margin: the pictures came. Thank you.
