Dear Sir,

Many thanks for return of proof of the last two sheets finally passed for press. This now leaves us free to finish the book1 which we shall be able to do in course of two or three days. We are making the addition regarding page 268 to the errata.

As we shall probably not have to write you again allow us to take this opportunity of expressing the pleasure it has been to co-operate with you in the production of this work.

Yours faithfully, | R. & R. CLARK, LIMITED, | Edward Clark2 [signature] | MANAGING DIRECTOR
