Letter 19

WORKS PROGRESS ADMINISTRATION

Walker-Johnson Building

WASHINGTON, D.C. 

December 11, 1937

Dear Mr. Christian: 

This letter is long overdue. This is my first opportunity to acknowledge the receipt of the material sent by you and to say that it is entirely satisfactory. The Bras Coupe' sketch and the note on Cecilly (colored actress) are especially gratifying. You need not bother about additional information on the latter as I believe the office here, aided by your editorial note, will be able to get whatever is available.

I wish to than you for your hearty cooperation and promptness and for the very good material which you have sent in. 

Very truly yours, 

Sterling A. Brown, 

Editor on Negro Affairs,

Federal Writers' Project
