Dear Sir

Se are glad to examine articles submitted for publication, but the manuscripts offered so exceed the limitations of our columns that many articles must be declined, which, under other circumstances, we might accept.

The fact that we are unable to avail ourselves of your offer is not to be regarded as a criticism, nor as a reflection on the literary qualities of the article, which is herewith returned with thanks.

Very truly yours,

The Sunday School Times.

It is now the Paul Laurence Dunbar House Historic Site, part of the National Park Service.
