Letter from J. Howard Woolmer to Laura Jackson, 1977-03-09
"I feel guilty that I haven't written to you yet about the manuscripts that you sent to me. I'm all tied up on a long and difficult appraisal..."
Letter from J. Howard Woolmer to Laura Jackson, 1977-04-11
"I finally got time to appraise your manuscripts this week-end. These include the Chelsea 35 galleys; the two boxes and a manilla folder of Rational Meaning typescripts; and the box of miscellaneous manuscripts."
Letter from [J. Howard Woolmer] to Laura Jackson, 1977-04-21
"I would like to offer the manuscript collection to the Berg Collection and in the event that they do not take them I would then offer them to Tulsa. Library budgets will be the deciding point, I'm afraid. I'm concerned about your papers being scattered too widely."
Letter from [J. Howard Woolmer] to Laura Jackson, 1977-05-28
"Thank you for your letter of 24th May. I feel greatly honoured by the contents of your letter. I do acquiesce in all you say and will do my best for you and after your death for the estate."
Letter from J. Howard Woolmer to Laura Jackson, 1977-06-04
"This is just a short note to let you know that Tulsa has decided to purchase the collection of typescripts, etc., that I offered to them..."
Letter from [J. Howard Woolmer] to Laura Jackson, 1977-06-24
"In regard to Alan Clark's copy of the first revision of Rational Meaning, this cannot be sold to anyone. As I mentioned before libraries are very sensitive to this sort of thing, feeling that they should not spend their money on manuscripts unless they have control."
Letter from [J. Howard Woolmer] to Laura Jackson, 1977-07-18
"I obviously misunderstood your letters of 17th June in thinking that the material you mentioned was a typescript version of the same material that you are giving to Cornell. There would be no objection to your offering this typescript material for sale."
Letter from [J. Howard Woolmer] to Laura Jackson, 1977-07-30
"I'm enclosing my cheque for $3,375.00 covering the manuscripts that we sold..."
Letter from [J. Howard Woolmer] to Laura Jackson, 1977-09-12
"Many thanks for the package of material on the Chelsea bibliography. It is going to prove most interesting and your kindness is very much appreciated."
Letter from [J. Howard Woolmer] to Laura Jackson, 1977-09-23
"In regard to the bibliographic material that you sent to me, this will go into my own collection. I would much rather have it here where it will remind me of you rather than sell it."
