Forman, Alma Murray to Madam [Doris Langley Moore], 1931-06-01
"Dear Madam, Forgive my delay in answering your letter of June 3rd but I have been ill and away from home. I also wanted to see my sister-in-law, Mrs. H. Benton [?] before writing to you as I thought perhaps she might remember some details about MissNesbit which might be of interest to you..."
Forman, Justis Miles to "My dear Lady" [Edith Nesbit?], 1906-01-12
"My dear Lady, I chanced to see a day or two ago an advertisement saying that your novel, of which I read parts last summer, is to appear serially in The Saturday Evening Post. It did not need that, you may be sure, to remind me of you and of Well Hall but none the less it offers a fresh occasion to congratulate you heartily..."
