Dear Mr. Underwood

Your papers received many thanks, I will read your editorials with pleasure.

I am glad that you again have a paper at your disposal

I have ordered my Book “Eighty years and more” sent to you I hope you and Mrs Underwood will read and give it as complimentary review as your literary conscience will permit

In the meantime publish my own review with some featuring remarks as to the novelty of my proceeding. Humour is one of my strong points. I am publishing my book myself, that is my son’s are at a cost of $1000 so I must ask all my friends to help me push it. I am sorry to hear that Mrs Underwood is suffering with rheumatism, but hope she soon be relieved. With kind regards
Yours sincerely
Elizabeth Cady Stanton
