To F. A. Duneka, in New York:  
Oct. 7, 1906. ['05]  
DEAR MR. DUNEKA,--... I've made a poor guess as to number of words.  
I think there must be 20,000. My usual page of MS. contains about 130  
words; but when I am deeply interested in my work and dead to everything  
else, my hand-writing shrinks and shrinks until there's a great deal  
more than 130 on a page--oh, yes, a deal more. Well, I discover, this  
morning, that this tale is written in that small hand.
