657 (385) Sept. 26/98. Mr. W. H. Ketcham, C/o Arthur Tooth & Sons, 299 Fifth Ave., New York. Dear Mr. Ketcham: I have had a splendid opportunity during the last two days to examine the books of prints received from you, and after having studied and compared them with the prints in my own collection I have decided that it would be wiser to purchase none of the lot. To me they seem much finer than the average prints purchasable anywhere to-day, and still they are not fine enough to thoroughly interest me. I am searching now for quality and in this respect none of the lot particularly interest me. I am however greatly obliged to you for having let me see them, and they will be returned to you to-morrow by express, charges prepaid. Again thanking you, I remain, Yours very truly, Charles L. Freer P.S. Your price list is returned herewith.
