Dear Sir,

Wadia: Intermediate English Prose Selections³

Thank you for your letter of the 16th granting our Indian Branch permission to use Chapter X of "Man’s Place in the Universe" ⁴ in their above book.

The amount of the fee is usually determined by the number of words in the extract quoted, and though we have not seen this, the fee asked does seem to us to be a little high.

However, we are forwarding your letter to our Bombay office⁵ from whom you will receive the fee, or if they find they cannot they [sic] use it they will advise you direct.

Yours faithfully, | B Butcher [signature]
