Description
Letter following through on garden-related issues mentioned during the previous Dumbarton Oaks meeting between Beatrix Farrand and John Thacher. They are waiting for the Committee to have the final say on the employment of previously-held gardeners and the garden guide, Anne Sweeney. Beatrix Farrand mentions Anne Sweeney's future position be official guide for the schoolchildren who visit the gardens. She ends the letter approving of John Thacher's decision to stay at Dumbarton Oaks and asks in a postscript for the 'name and titles' of Irving C. Root so that she may "prod" him for answers.
Typewritten letter on Beatrix Farrand's New York letterhead. The address is crossed out and "Reef Point, Bar Harbor, Maine" typed beside it. Faint signature in black ink.
