Dear Sir,

We beg to thank you for your kind letter of yesterday. We of course regret that we shall not have the pleasure of publishing your Autobiography¹ either in this country or in America, but in the circumstances we quite understand your having arranged the matter elsewhere.

We share your hope that whenever the book is published it may tend to increase the sales of your other books, which are in our hands.

We are | yours faithfully

Macmillan & Co, Ltd [signature]
