Letters, a newspaper clipping, and an envelope, 1894-1900
Scope and Contents
Five handwritten and signed letters. Three are addressed to Barton O. Aylesworth. One is addressed to John Brisben Walker and another to the "editor of the Cosmopolitan."
Also included is an envelope in which one of the letters was sent to Aylesworth and a newspaper clipping presenting a biography of Allen.
Allen thanks Aylesworth for writing to him, presents autobiographical information, and lists many of his publications.
Allen informs the editor of the Cosmopolitan magazine that he will be unable to write a desired article for the publication.
