" | THOROUGHLY ENJOY READING EACH ISSUE OF THE LADDER. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHERE | MIGHT OBTAIN SOME OF THE BOOKS YOU LIST FROM TIME TO TIME UNDER THE FEATURE 'LESBIANA'. I CANNOT SECURE ANY OF THEM IN THE PUBLIC LIBRARY OF THIS CITY, NOR CAN I EVEN GET THEM FROM THE STATE LIBRARY AT INDIANAPOLIS. I WOULD LIKE TO EITHER BUY SOME OF THESE BOOKS OR BORROW SOME OF THEM TO READ."

| AM A RECENT SUBSCRIBER AND HAVE JUST RECEIVED THE FIRST ISSUE OF SEPTEMBER, 1958, AND AM VERY MUCH PLEASED WITH SAME, AND I KNOW YOU ARE DOING A WONDERFUL JOB FOR WHICH I COMMEND YOU MOST HIGHLY.

"I AM GREATLY INTERESTED IN THE BOOKS LISTED ON PAGE 15, LESBIANA. WILL YOU PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHERE I CAN PROCURE THESE BOOKS, THE PUBLISHER AND PRICE OF SAME, OR IF I MAY ORDER THEM THROUGH YOUR OFFICE.

"STAMPS ENCLOSED FOR YOUR REPLY, ALSO SMALL DONATION. I AM ISOLATED HERE, SO YOU CAN REALIZE HOW REFRESHING IT IS TO READ ABOUT THOSE THAT I HAVE THINGS IN COMMON WITH."
