ref. 11691Both on letterheads of the Syndicate Publishing Company New York. Adair's letter: 2 December 1914. Wright's letter: 30 March 1915. The letters provide a fascinating insight into the development of the transatlantic publishing industry. They are closely typed with single spacing and both centre around Walton's employment situation and his complaints about the sending over from America of 'Mr. Russell' about whose 'absolute worthlessness to the business' he complains. Adair's letter: 2pp. 4to. Good on lightly-aged paper. The firm has 'not the slightest doubt' that what Walton has said in his 'confidential communication' is 'entirely sincere': 'We feel it is just such a letter as a really big man having the interest of his employers at heart would right. sic' They have complete confidence in Russell's 'integrity honesty etc.' but acknowledge that it is important 'that he expenses of the London Office be kept down to the last notch'. Russell is 'familiar with so many things that have been done in this country and the manner in whcih either successes or failures have been made out of them' and is 'rather expert in figuring out the cheapest way to do things . A great many firms go to pieces not because they have not made money but for the reason that they failed to save any of that made'. Wright's letter: 3pp. 4to. Good on lightly-aged paper with slight damage not affecting the legibility of the text to the third of its three leaves. He has delayed replying to Walton's letter as he 'wanted to take sufficient time to think over our London situation more carefully and to definitely make up my own mind as to what would be for the best interests of the business'. He is not surprised that 'Mr. Starmer' has made Walton 'a liberal offer': 'there are plenty of other newspaper men in England who would not be slow to recognise your ability and to make you a satisfactory proposition'. Walton is highly qualified 'to handle the large and successful papers'. Wright lays out the plans he has for Walton: 'I have away down deep in my heart a great degree of interest in yourself and I have taken up the matter of your future with my associates with the idea in mind that at the proper time you will be given a connection with the company in a way that will be highly satisfactory to you; in fact I would not be at all surprised if an opportunity of absolute control of the English company would be given you'. In the meantime Walton's salary of £750 will be continued and he will be assisted by a 'traveling man'. 'You have been with our company going on two years. You have seen evidenced in Sheffield and one or two other towns what our plan of operation is worth and at such time as the war is over and things settle down to calm conditions you will in my opinion be able to produce results over there that will be highly gratifying to everybody interested.' He considers that England is not 'in nearly as serious a condition' as America: 'in fact I believe that business has been affected as much if not more in certain lines in the United States than it has in England'. On the question of Russell's 'absolute worthlessness to the business it would seem that backed up with a college education coupled with what he has learned in knocking about this country for fifteen or twenty years that he ought to be able in time and under the proper tuition of one more capable to at least earn a respectable part of his salary.'

Nicely acccomplished works most of them on one side of the leaf therefore removable and suitable for display. Harley DeWitt Nichols 1859-1939 was born in Barton Wisconsin. He began his education in art as early as 11 years of age. His first job putting his talent and training to use came in the form of an apprenticeship with the Milwaukee firm Marr & Richards where he stayed for 3 years drawing and engraving on wood. The subsequent years included many moves from Milwaukee to Chicago and later to New York where he studied at ASL and was encouraged by Professor Packard to pursue a career as an illustrator at a European school. Nichols left for Munich in October 1885 to attend the Royal Academy where he studied under Heckel became a member of the American Club and socialized with Carl von Marr the clubs president. He went to London for a little while and worked as an illustrator. By 1893 hed returned to New York working mostly in advertising and illustrating for Harpers Weekly and Century magazines. He helped organize the New York Water Color Club. Nichols didnt curb his parapatetic lifestyle until he moved to Laguna Beach California in 1894. The art community in Los Angeles was in its infancy but he got a teaching job at the Echo Mountain summer school and he was inspired by the scenery of Yosemite Monterey San Juan Capistrano and other locations in southern California. He stayed in Laguna Beach until his death in 1939. hardcover
