Dear Miss Yonge
The colonial conscience exists as you see in relation to copyright. If you will kindly sign the enclosed receipt we will be able to recover for you munificent sum of 11/8d. for the wrong done you by the sale of Yankee reprints in British territory.

I am not going to America after all, & will, I trust have the pleasure of seeing you at my house when you come to London. Will you kindly give me as long notice as you can. I am going for a holiday, but could regulate it as to time.

Yours ever faithfully
Alex Macmillan
