Westport, Conn May 2, 1941 Dear Lankes Sherwood did not get your letter. Sherwood's brother Karl tells me you where elected to the academy. Last night in talking to Van Wyck Books and Stanley Young I mentioned your name. Stanley who is with Harcourt Brace said he wanted you to illustrate a book last year but could not find your address. Said MacMillan did not know. I gave him Hilton Village. I hope that things are going well with you which sounds abound in such a world. Sincerely, Eleanor Anderson

Dear Eleanor: The Sherwood issue of STORY is fine. He lives again for me in it. I was lucky to find a magazine stand in Richmond having one copy of Story, and mine was the only copy of Story sold there in six months! How much magic Sherwood would get into a remark! Everyday words strung together in every day manner except somewhere magic stole in, and there was the soul of a big chunk of America. I felt him deeply and closely perhaps because my own life and education were not the orthodox--the education very irregular and taking only what I liked and nothing I did not care for. Well, I'm glad to have been reckoned as friend, and with such a friendship brought about as a fellow worker in art-an artist should never complain of material inappreciation when the spiritual rewards

are so great. I learned lately that my "Elegy" has not yet repaid Harpers the advance royalty of $300. It has still to earn over $70. My lunch was that $10 would be all that I could expect to realize for woodcut as a job. In the light of the fact that that wouldn't be laborer's pay I am quite indifferent. "Winesburg, Ohio" did not realize $75 the first year it was on the market. Of course I should have liked better a return of $3,000 or $30,000 still better. One of the lessons Sherwood has taught artists is that art as a product of life is like the blossoms of a vine or tree and the fruits of shrubs and trees. The trees get no rewards nor "appreciation" in most cases. But there it is and always the best they are capable of. The artist has to be that way too. I've ordered a copy of the Memoirs; in it Sherwood will live as long as I shall have life which to me is long enough for anything to live. With all good wishes Sincerely J. J. Lankes

June 15, 1953
Dear Eleanor: I got a copy of the "Letters" Saturday night at a bookshop in Chapel Hill. It is a lovely memorial of Sherwood. He lives again in it. You know I thought I hadn't seen much of him his loss was very personal to me.
I think the choice of letters to me used by Mumford Jones very good. That fellow Burchfield had an extremely small mind - a hell-fire Baptist mind that prompted me to think that whatever good qualities he got in his painting were accidental. I don't believe he knew himself what they were until pointed out to him. My best, J. J.
