15. Kelly Miller, As to the Leopard’s Spots: An Open Letter to Thomas Dixon, Jr. (Washington, DC: Hayworth Publishing House, [1905?]). (4, 21 p.)


Open letter that begins, “I am writing you [Thomas Dixon, Jr.] this letter to express the attitude and feeling of ten million of your fellow citizens toward the evil propagandism of race animosity to which you have lent your great literary power.” Mr. Stone’s marks for emphasis appear on almost every page. (The collection has another copy of this letter in volume 38 [no. 16]. This copy has a preface and three pages of reviewers’ comments.)
