Oct. 25, 1934
Mr. Sherwood Anderson
Marion, Virginia
Dear Sir:
I have always been very much interested in your writings, especially since Camden is my birthplace, too.
For several years I have been trying to gather some information concerning you and your family when living in and about Camden. There is a number of people who remember your father when he kept his harness shop here, and several of them have recalled interesting incidents in connection with him.
I believe that I have definitely determined the house in which you were born and also the building in which your father kept his harness shop. It is my intention to take pictures of these two places and if you care to have copies I shall be glad to send them.
