the poet to writer and critic Waldo Frank and dated June 1921. Laid in 
is a sheet of paper, slightly larger than the text pages, on which is 
printed four paragraphs about LEGENDS including three quotes from 
critics, one of whom is Waldo Frank. This page appears to have been

it is a clear indication of the importance of the inscription. Near
