Front flyleaf contains penciled note to E. Boyd, which reads: "Tho' we have never read this book and suppose no one else ever has including the publishers, we have a fundamental conviction that the basis of every library is a certain number of unread books. This is our contribution to yours. Last month we placed 'The wrongs of Indian womanhood.'" Note is dated Feb. 1936 and signed "N.H.; F.B.; D.B." (Edward Hall, Mrs. Donald Bear, and Donald Bear).
