Laid in is a 2 page letter handwritten in ink by Ella Young - "Box 136 Oceano Calif. July 1945 Dear Helen & Karl Klein It is a great delight to read your letter and to have your greetings from that part of America which first welcomed and enchanted me. America is a living country in the sense that Ireland is living: a country where the mountains cry out to each other and the streams and rivers & forests make a vast music. It is for people such as you & Robert & Marie Lawson to interpret such a country or rather to be initiated by such a country and invited into its hidden realms and its sacred unseen cities. I count myself lucky to have lived in Ireland and to have known something of America. There is a book of mine "Celtic Wonder Tales" Dutton & Co. which contains fragments of the Celtic Myth of Creation. The Universe taking form through successive invasions from the God-World. It has too much condensed the famous Destruction of Da Dergas Hostel. Do you know "The Voyage of Bran Son of Febal" translated by Kuno Meyer published by David Nutt in the Strand London 1895. You should be able to get it from any good library. It is a saga that has always fascinated me. My greetings to you and to the Dawsons. I hope that you will write some again asap. Ella Young I am sending you by post a book of mine". The book which she sent by post is Very Good tape residue to the endpages from the letter having been taped in page containing the first poem in the book toned from newspaper clipping obituary laid in boards soiled.
