 Title:  Poe Collection: Letter from Edgar Allan Poe to Frederick William Thomas, 1841, September 1  
 Published:  1999 
 Description: Griswold left a note for me at the office, the other day, requesting me to furnish him with some memoranda of your life; and it will, of course, give me great pleasure to do so; but, upon sitting down to the task, I find that neither myself, nor Mrs Clemm, upon whom I mainly depend for infor. mation, can give all the necessary points with sufficient pre- cision for G's purpose. Just send me a line, therefore, answering the following queries, and I will put your responses into shape. Most of the points we know, but not with full certainty. What is your father's Christian name? Had your parents more children than yourself, Lewis, Frances, Susan, Martha, Isabella & Jackson? -if so, what were their names? When & where were you born? With whom did you study law? What was (exactly) the cause of your lameness? How did you first become known to the literary world? Who were your most intimate associates in Baltimore? When did you remove to Cincinnati? With what papers have you been occasionally connected -if with any? Be- sides answering these queries -give me a list of your writings published & unpublished -and some memoranda respecting your late lectures at Washington. Reply as soon as possible, as the volume is in press.
