The letter, to "Dear Miss Femmern," declining to give her personal biography. 2 pages, 12mo, with integral blank; faint scattered foxing, horizontal fold. The document, "rec[eived] K.

The letter: "I could give no details of my Life--as I dislike so anything of that sort published or anything in the style of interviewing. I have always refused. I refused the Pall Mall, so they made one up, which was quite incorrect. If it were only just relating to my drawings, I should be happy to give you any information . . . ."
