A typescript letter from Elizabeth Corbett to Samuel H. Church stating that she has been instructed by Mr. John W. Beatty to return the enclosed letters to him. Presumably these letters are the letters mentioned by Beatty in a letter he wrote to Church, dated Sept. 8, 1911, about a portrait that Anders Zorn painted of Andrew Carnegie. The letters were originally written to Samuel H. Church by: Anders Zorn, presumably dated August 18, 1911 and James Bertram, presumably dated June 30, 1911. On Carnegie Institute Pittsburgh, Pa., John W. Beatty, Director of Fine Arts stationary.
