Gans T. Field writes from New York City: "My vote goes to The Poltergeist of Swan Upping—the more so because Mr. Quinn's de Grandin speaks flatteringly of my character, Judge Pursuivant. The judge and I are glad to have found so distinguished a friend and well-wisher, and more than glad to have suggested a way out of another of Doctor de Grandin's intriguing psychic difficulties."

B. Reagan writes from Pittsburgh: "The snow vampire is original—Derleth should get credit for this innovation. Fearful Rock could become the best story of 1939. The start is fine."

Seymour Kapetansky writes from Detroit: "I'm fearful of what a 160-page size will do to the quality. But you've never let your readers down, so I have a lot of faith in you."

R. Kelly writes from New York City: "Congratulations on keeping the magazine weird. It is just as good today as it was seven or eight years ago when I first started reading it. I like the idea of printing only reprints from WT."
