TLS signed “W. B. Yeats,” one page, 8 x 10, May 26, 1903. Letter to the wife of writer G. K. Chesterton, in full: "I am very sorry not to have been able to get to you last Friday but I had an old engagement for that night. I am off to Ireland for awhile but I hope when I get back that you and your husband will come to me some Monday evening." Yeats adds a postscript in his own hand: "Please forgive typed letter but I have weak eyes & must dictate." In very good to fine condition, with overall light creasing, and two short fold splits. Yeats's poetry volume In the Seven Woods: Being Poems Chiefly of the Irish Heroic Age was published in 1903 by Elizabeth Yeats's Dun Emer Press.
