Dorsey, Eila Lorraine, Washington, District of Columbia, to Father Daniel E. Hudson, C.S.C., Notre Dame, Indiana, 1887 August 10
Scope and Contents
Dorsey was glad Hudson could take the story "The Old Hair Trunk". When he comes to settle with Katherine Faxon, he should do it through Dorsey. She is sorry about the professor and will write him if Hudson thinks it would not bother him. Did he ever get his money back out of "Bob"? Professor James Edwards was as welcome as any one from Notre Dame, would be. Dorsey rejoiced to hear the Englishman still survived the hardships of proof reading and told Edwards she thought seriously of applying for the post of Assistant Editor. She submits a contract for Hudson's approval. The first sales will net each of them about $125. Dorsey is studying Russian this spring and translating three of Count Tolstoi's tracts. She thought of bringing out a book of Tolstoi's translated tracts, an idea which Tichnor's took up with enthusiasm until a man named Dole issued a translation of the same stories. Tichnor's suggested Dorsey's translation should be published in a good weekly magazine; the present rage for Tolstoi being a guarantee of success. She inquires what Hudson thinks of this idea. :: X-3-e A.L.S. 4pp. 8vo.
