Dear Carl,

Please contact Carol Christiansen at: Doubleday, a Devision of Bantam Doubleday Del 1540 Broadway New York, NY, 10036

Doubleday currently owns the copyright for "Gates and Doors." Carol will work out a contract with you for the use of this poem. It's so nice to know that a poem of my grandfather's other than "Trees" is getting some exposure. Thanks so much for your cooperation.

Miriam A. Kilmer mkilmer@cap.gwu.edu (until Dec.11)

mkilmer@capaccess.org (after Dec.15)
