O'NEILL WILSON, ROSE (1874-1944), Autograph Letter, signed, to Mrs Ralph.
Bonnibrook (Cos Cob, Ct.), wednesday. 8vo. 4 pp. Fine. ¶ Reading in part: "I hasten to send you the glorious tidings of your son. Dear lady, we are all quite bowled over by his astonishing stories...the hard days of his novitiate are done....Besides all this he is husky and well and gay...We haven't reported this to the office-rather implying a still exhausted state so as to eke out the time as long as possible." This letter must be sent to the wife of a fellow writer at Puck Magazine when she was married to Harry Leon Wilson, which lasted from 1902-1907. O'Neill created the Kewpie dolls in 1909 and went on to great fame
