Materials Specific Details
Discussion concerns disagreements between Elizabeth and W. B. At the suggestion of her father, Elizabeth asks Walker’s advice. Difficulties apparently erupted over production of some of A.E. 's poems, and Elizabeth questions whether or not the Press can survive without W. B. as literary advisor. Reference is made to the “society” at Coole Park. Elizabeth suggests the possibility of A.E. acting in the capacity of literary advisor. She concludes with a reference to her upcoming trip to New York and discusses the administration of the Press in her absence.
