Dearest Janie,

Did you observe that there is an article in this month’s Fraser upon Sordello? Don’t you think it must be the one He spoke of? It must be got. If you buy it I will go shares. Have it ready for me by the time I get to town with remarks. …

Have you been prowling round Robert’s house to see if he is in town? I feel as if that work would come here just after I go.

I must write to Seton about those books; they are to be ready soon. …

Publication: None traced.

Manuscript: India Office Records.
