{in a second hand: "Tarkington, Booth
Sept 10, 1919"}

{Pre-printed: "Seawood
Kennebunkport, Maine"}

Sept. 10, '19

Dear Mrs. Sewall:

I request that you
send me the information I asked for
after you have "got settled" in
Indp'ls. You can dictate it there.
Mr. Howland will doubtless talk
over the contract with you; I
an sure he will be fair, and
the terms will be customary - it
is always about the same thing:
10% gross, I suppose, on sales
up to 10,000 and 15% thereafter -
some such arrangement -
I should let him propose the
terms and, if they are like this,
accept at once.

Of course the eliminations
will be submitted to you before
the book is made up; and the
order of the contents (using the
essays as appendix) is not of
great importance, so long
