My dear Chapman,

Many thanks for the account, and for the Cheque. I really forget in what way I usually give you a receipt: I will do so, however & whenever you like.

I am glad the books (I mean my own) are selling better: your advertisements ought to help this, for you supply them liberally.

I wish you a good New Year with all my heart, & am

Very truly ever yours

Robert Browning.
