Dear Sir:
I wish to congratulate you on the good story you wrote in Everybody's Magazine this month. It is the beat story I ever read and the best I ever saw published in any magazine.
I am well posted on the "Brokers" business and enjoyed your story very much. I hope you will continue to write them. I know they are taken more from real life than immagination. I am sure they will be appreciated as much as "Frenzied Finance". I have taken the liberty to send a good word to Ridgway's.
With best wishes, I remain Tours respectfully,

My dear Sir:
It was indeed a pleasure to read your novel in this month's Everybody's.
Being an old trader myself, I have appreciated every word of it and look forward for the continuation with much interest.
I just want to say this too--that anyone who says that you cannot write anything else but "Street" gossip had better cover his "shorts".
Wis.h.i.+ng you all kinds of success, and with congratulations on your splendid work, I am
Very sincerely,

Dear Sirs:
I have just your first installment of "Friday 13th." It is OK + if the balance of the story is as good (+ I have no doubts on that score) you are "It" when it comes to writting fiction as well as tricking the Insurance Thief + Standard Oil Grafters.
Wis.h.i.+ng you success I am yours very truly S. F. Welch
