Dear Morgan,

 

Thank you for your letter, which arrived just after I had written to say I had missed it. I am so glad you approve of us doing the Trilling book. I have started negotiations with the agents over here.

 

I return the beautiful Pharos and Pharillon, and enclose a piece of paper which the Garden City Press has offered me as a jacket paper for the new edition. I think it is rather pretty myself; do you think dark blue lettering on it would look nice?

 

Yours ever,
