It is long –too long-- since I have seen you. I have been thinking for some time of coming over to Staten Island to get a glimpse of you and to talk over old times. Now my young friend, Jacob...

Dear Mr. Markham,
We were all greatly disappointed that you were not able to come to Monroe on Sunday. You missed more than you will ever know.
We had a tremendous meeting; all the countryside was out. And Brother Graham and Sister Rose...

Dear Mr. Markham,
I read, with appreciation, the full – page article about you in last Saturday’s “Journal” and the column in yesterday’s “Herald Tribune.” It is good to know, old friend, that you are still so active,...
Sat. Eve.
Dear Mr. Markham,
I made a mistake in writing you. I cannot come Sat. eve., as I have promised to go to Philadelphia. How about Thursday eve? I will see Kirkpatrick at once, and find if this is convenient for him.
Do not write until you...
N.Y., Jan. 24/02.
Dear Mr. Markham,
I was more than pleased to get your kind note, - the more so because I feel I hardly deserved it. The article is very superficial, and was written during a stress of other work. I am not particularly proud of...

Dear Mr. Markham,
I am very anxious to have you meet Clara von Ende Liebmann, of whose work you have possibly already heard. Her father, Heinrich von Ende, was a German aristocrat who turned Socialist, came to this country, and died,...

Dear Mr. Markham,
Thanks for the poem, which we had already taken from the “Journal” and which will appear in next week’s issue.
I think that it is far away the best and truest picture of this phase of modern Mammonism that I ever...
Tuesday
Dear Mr. Markham,
I have been going rather a swift pace, and had to rest up Saturday, so I could not come to your reception. But I was with you in sympathy, if not in bodily presence; and I heartily reciprocate your affectionate...

Dear Mrs. Markham,
Here is a little souvenir of the Westfield lunch-party. If you would like more of these photographs, either mounted or unmounted, I can get them at 25¢ apiece.
I am very sorry that Mr. Markham’s name was mixed up in...

Dear Edwin Markham,
Greetings on your 78th birthday! I read with real pleasure the interviews with you in the “Telegram” and “Times” and rejoice that you are still active and forging ahead. I am still a member of the Poetry...

Dear Mr. Markham,
I know that Ferdinand Earle wants you to go out to his place at Monroe as soon as you can go, as soon as you care to go.
I simply cannot very well go until Saturday noon – by the train (Erie Railroad) leaving Chambers...
May 13/07
Dear Mr. Markham,
I hope you will not think I am taking advantage of your kindness in writing you today. I repeated your remark to Viereck, and he repeated it to his publisher, Mr. Yard. Needless to say, both were greatly pleased. It...

Dear Mr. Markham,
Thanks – a thousand thanks! – for the little birthday gift. I know the “Eclogues” only by reputation, and want to make them my own, in the real sense.
I am sending a screamingly funny cartoon of our Monday lunch...
Jan. 7/08
Dear Mr. Markham,
I am sending you under separate cover a letter from Mrs. Henry S[?], of Philadelphia. She is a Russian-Jewish lady – a great heart in a little lady.
They want to give you a hint of reception over there. There will be...

Dear Mr. Markham,
Herron, Gorky, now Earle – not to mention Jack London, J. William Lloyd, Elbert Hubbard - it fairly takes one’s breath away!
This whirlwind burst over me as suddenly as over everybody else. I knew nothing of the...
