Edna D Bullock, letter to Melvil Dewey, 1893

Edna D Bullock, letter to Melvil Dewey, 1893 Lincoln Neb. Sept. 11, 1893. Dear Mr Dewey:- At the eleventh hour, I have persuaded myself that I cannot afford to stay away from the A.L.A. conference, although I am not exactly able to see how I can afford to go. But I remember that you told us concerning the Chicago trip that we ought to go even at the risk of having to wear our old clothes to pay for it. I shall go to Albany and go with the party from there. If you will be kind enough to secure a comfort- -able # 1 place for me, preferably on your side of the lake, I will be very grateful. I will try to pick up a roommate when I get to Albany. I will agree to be satisfied with anything you select, only I should prefer to go where there are some people that I know stopping. Very truly, Edna D. Bullock.
