I. I enclose cheque for Stocker & Mann.

2. I enclose file of Readers Union Ed[itio]n of Moth.  Mr. Smith thinks it will look very well if done as proposal A., and he estimates for this £59.10.0. It would cost at least £90 to reset, and would of course take a great deal longer.

 

                        £60

Extras                5

                       

                        £65

                                                3333/-

                                                =£166/13/-

 

So about £100 profit, divided between V.W.*3 & us[?].
