My dear Sir

Young Mr Appleton was in London a few weeks back (he has now retd. to New York) & he distinctly told us here to send a set of the stereotype plates of yr new work to their house, so I think we are all right.1

We are printing off 1000 Copies & keeping the type standing.

Your’s faithfully | Robt. Cooke
