Dear Woolf,

 

I expect by this time that the other letter will have reached you.

 

I incline on the undecided points, to vote for a book a of 15/- b of 1050 copies c with an index. That is if I have to decide.

 

The departure of the three members of the committee who announced in yesterday’s papers. But as they go to Northern Rhodesia

first I suggest that the mss [manuscript] should be sent to Zomba, British Nyasaland, with as you kindly agree, a letter from the Sec[retary]. of the advisory Committee. (Major Church M.P. is our man would you ask him to have the other two read the mss [manuscript].?)

 

I shall let you have the missing chap[ter]s. by Monday morning.

 

Yours │ Norman Leys [signature]
