Explains some proof-correcting symbols to be used by WED [on Origin, 6th ed. proofs?].
For CD’s approval, cites passage from CD note he wants to quote in a lecture;
pleads for CD’s moral support for FEA’s work in free-thought movement.
Sends $50 [dollars or pounds!?] because he wants CD to become regular contributor to Index.
JS should not consider repaying CD; the money was a gift, not a loan.
JS’s information on expression is the best he has received.
Suggests CD have Origin [6th ed.] stereotyped.
Will sell out remaining copies of Descent at forthcoming trade sale, print off 500 or 1000 more, and then have the type distributed.
14 copies of C. Wright’s pamphlet have been sold.
