Dear Chamberlain:- 
I have just discovered your letter of the £6th 
ult. among my unanswered letters. I intended to habe answered 
it promptly, but it arrived just as college opened and in the rush 
of that season it was overlooked. I really don’t know as 1 can 
give you much valuable information in regard to sectional book¬ 
cases, as I have never used but one :ake-the Globe-Wernicke. 
These hafce proved very satisfactory, but I imagine there is some¬ 
thing better on the market by this time, for instance, the 
hlacey people are now putting a very good sectional bookcase on the 
market, I believe. I understand there are some metallic ones 
on the market also, though I know nothing about them. 
The section of the Globe-’.Ternieke that I find the most useful 
is the Cll ho.239, costing *3.00 ikj each. This carries the ordinary 
8vo book. 
At the time I first bought my cases there x&xx was only one 
size made, and this size was, of course, the one I bought, 
consequently I have had no experience with, more than one size. 
I believe these cases are made withe the idea that they can 
be made to fit in almost any kind of a space if the proper ones 
are bought. I would advise you to measure the space in which 
you wish them to fit and then figure on getting a combination to 
fit that space. 
I wish I could give you more direct information on the subject. 
Hastily, but cordially.
