Bancroft, Nebraska, June 21, '12
Dear Mr. Chapman:—
The books for which I asked came yesterday, and I am very grateful to you for your generous response to my letter. So far I have merely dipped into "Causes and Consequences", and I have felt in it the same sure-headedness, the same grasp of facts and the same fine vision that stirred me in reading "Learning and Other Essays". I shall have a truly delightful time in preparing that article!
You were very kind to ask me to stay at your home when I go East again; and when it is possible I shall certainly do so.
You mention having sent for some of my books. If "The Stranger at the Gate" was not in your order, I should like to send a copy — or any other that you think might interest you.
With all good thoughts,
Yours,
Jno. G. Neihardt
