On letterhead printed with "Hares Lane Radnor Pennsylvania", the letter reads: Nov 27th 1948 To the Southwest Harbor Library Southwest Harbor, Me, I believe you have a painting of the old Clark Wharf which I loaned to the library years ago. This painting is still my property and I have [illegible] decided to present to the library [?] permanent possession. I only ask['ed' struck out] it be treated with respect and not sold or bartered. Painting of this size and character of mine have sold around $2500.00 and I consider this a good example of my work. If the Library committee decides to accept it for its permanent collection I would like a formal acknowledgement Very sincerely yours, Chas. Morris Young I would suggest that the painting be cleaned with a little ivory soap and cold water this will not harm it. Very likely the frame would be improved by regilding with a coat of regular gold paint or powder. C.M.Y.

The letter reads: Dec. 16th, 1963 To, Lawrence Phillips, Southwest Harbor. To answer your letter Oct 18th saying in view of my painting "Clark's Wharf," which I loaned to the library for many years! I have recently got an appraisal of this painting although he has not seen this particular canvas, he has handled my pictures and sold many and therefore knows what they will bring - and names the value of the painting "Clarks Wharf" so I have decided to present the canvas to the Southwest Harbor Library - and take a chance of getting an allowance on my income tax. Simply have the Library write saying they would like to have it, and that the library is a public institution and a non profit one; I would have to get the letter before Jan 1st 1964 to get a benefit on my income tax. With cordial remembrances, Chas Morris Young "95th" year. Box 74, Radnor Pa
