THE BUNGALOW
GRANITE BAY.
SHORT BEACH, CONNECTICUT

My dear Margaret Widdemer
  I saw an advanced
copy of April Good
Housekeeping magazine
and I was thrilled
and stirred with
the wonderful
beauty of
your poem
"The old
road
to
Paradise."  It is exquisite
beyond words! far & away
the best thing written on
the world catacy-
-lsm.  It makes earth
and life so much richer
to read a beautiful 
thing like that.  My
husband is crazy 
over it.  With
congratulations

Ella Wheeler Wilcox
