I would say nothing, if I were you. There is eternal virtue in silence.

I must express my pleasure with the closing chapters of “Elsie.” They are nobly and beautifully done, and quite come up to what I wanted to complete my idea of her character. I am quite satisfied with it now. It is an artistic creation, original and beautiful.

Believe me to be your true friend, H. B. Stowe.

Houghton, Mifflin and Company, The Riverside Press, Cambridge, 1889.
