{"value"=>"<p>All of the letters in this file have to do with Hayden Carruth's story \"Track's End\". A few of them were written to Hayden Carruth after publication of the story in. The Youth's Companion in 1897 and before its appearance in book form in 1911. Most of them concern Hayden Carruth's vigorous personal effort to promote the sale of the book including his replies to letters from readers of the book as a result of the invitation in the Notice or Foreward in the book. Many of the letters herein are from well-known writers and artists of the time. There are also some letters received after Hayden Carruth's death and my replies to them\" [note by Gorton V.
