Scope and Contents:
Typescript letter with handwritten signature from Beatrix Farrand to Mildred Bliss discusses Reef Point, garden and library and encourages Mildred Bliss to adopt a similar plan that includes a reading room at Dumbarton Oaks. She hopes Mildred Bliss approves of her donation to the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden construction of a parking area. She knows Mildred Bliss's thoughts will be with her on September 22 [anniversary of the death of her mother, Mary Cadwalader Jones].
