Dear Woolf,
The paper is Cmd 2629. Get it. It proves my main contention and disproves nothing I asserted in my book. Unfortunately my legal adviser wants me to qualify certain statements in my proposed rejoinder, which would damage their cutting edge deplorably.
I may have to postpone the rejoinder for another week.

My tenth thoughts are better than my second and this is a chance I will never have again.
Is there anything needing to be settled about the cheap edition except the writing of the postscript? If you dont[sic] answer I shall know there is not.
If the Cmd paper sold 20 copies my rejoinder should sell 100.
[Text written at top margin] I thought that article of Ross’s in the Nation for the best he [1 word illeg.] done[?].
Yours | Norman Leys [signature]
