Edwin Balmer's letter to Pribyl, the Editor of Scenarios at the Selig Polyscope Company,  reads as follows: "Here's a film form of my story-"The Captain of the Kinross"-- which recently was published in the Associated Sunday Magazines. I think you'll find it tense, [with] dramatic action[,] and easily made here on the lake at the opening of shipping season. This is planned for two reels and therefore is submitted at $200." Amelia Edith Barr's letter thanks Pribyl for his previous letter, and also provides him with an address so that they can meet in the future.
