"When I was in Boston last August I left a large group of poems with you without making a list of them because I thought I was to have them again in a few days before I left town. Will you kindly let me know if you can use any and return the other. It is not impossible that some of them have been taken since then; a score have and I do not recall which I left with you..." Born in New England after the Civil War, Isabel Fiske Conant became a prolific poet in the early 20th century, her verse published in newspapers and magazines like The Independent. It seems that she was still writing as late as the 1940s when she was associated with Coker College in South Carolina, and had a large acquaintance among writers and artists; one of her poems was dedicated to Robert Frost, another to sculptor Solum Borglum, younger brother of the famed sculptor of Mount Rushmore. Her letters are found in many university archives.
