My dear Mr Macmillan,
Thank you for your kind note and expressions of sympathy. It is the beginning of a lonely life to me, but I have my brother’s house very near, and full of kindness.
I write now about that unfortunate Cameo which was missed out. The proof of it came to me first numbered XXXVI, which is its proper place, but the revise is XLII, so as to make it seem as if it belonged at the end of the reign of Edward II. Would it not be better to indicate on it its right place than to number it wrong? I will keep the revise till I hear from you.
May I also ask if you absolutely reject the story ‘Wooed and Won’-?2 If so let me know, but please do not return it till I write again
Yours sincerely
CMYonge
They are really using the Cameos in School at Winchester College
