A minister, published poet, and doctor from New Salem, Massachusetts, Perry Marshall carried on a correspondence with Dorothy Bullard, also from New Salem, from 1927 until 1929. The letters, although personal, are not romantic, and are likely written from the perspective of an older gentleman who late in life has come to admire, and perhaps to adore, a young woman of his acquaintance. Bullard, as a lively and thoughtful young woman, clearly returns the admiration, if not the affection. Also included are several of Marshall's published works.
