My dear Mr. Macmillan,

Tisn't likely that what you folk couldn't persuade me to – David Masson could – much as I like him. – If you think it would be useful – put "the author of" –

I doubt if I can do "Women and Warriors" – why don't you? This morning the Brazil mail brought me a long letter – and tomorrow is mail day for mine – so I'm very busy. – So glad your dear good wife is better. – I knew she would be. – And it will do you good too. It's very bad economy to burn the human candle at both ends. –

Ever yours sincerely, Wednesday night DMulock –
