I have just begun my work on The Uncle Remus Fables.
Hope I shall please you with my part, shall make several full pages
for wood cuts and a number [?]
of ½ and ¼ pages for
process work. As The Animals are limited and Mr. Rabbit plays such a conspicuous
part in each I shall have to take great pains not to repeat myself and some will
go without illustrations. May I ask what your idea is of Miss Meadows and if I should bring her in what [?] should she look like I
didn't know but what it meant just nature which would
be a good point to depict as a pretty girl

in simple costume, making a charming contrast to the [?]positions of the animals. Much obliged for your good opinions of my ability as an artist and hoping to please you with my efforts
