Burroughs, Edgar Rice

"Tarzan Of The Apes"

He felt that it would be no breach of ethics to read this letter, so he took the enclosure from the envelope and read:



To Tarzan Of The Apes:


? ? ? ? We thank you for the use of your cabin, and are sorry that you did not permit us the pleasure of seeing and thanking you in person.


? ? ? ? We have harmed nothing, but have left many things for you which may add to your comfort and safety here in your lonely home.


? ? ? ? If you know the strange white man who saved our lives so many times, and brought us food, and if you can converse with him, thank him, also, for his kindness.


? ? ? ? We sail within the hour, never to return; but we wish you and that other jungle friend to know that we shall always thank you for what you did for strangers on your shore, and that we should have done infinitely more to reward you both had you given us the opportunity.


Very respectfully,


Wm. Cecil Clayton.
