MS Girton College Cambridge, Yonge IV 25
Dear Mr Innes,
I give my consent to the increase of your commission from 10 per cent to 12½ per cent.
We must sacrifice Gretchen and Archaeological Moss to Sister Florence who is more worthy.1 We cannot give up Rowling Manor-2
Miss Coleridge did correct that tessellated mask – and you see she has marked on this revise that one of her other corrections this time was not attended to! I believe the defect must be that Clowes can have no careful and educated reader to overlook proofs. The few things they some times query are generally quite as unaccountable as the blunders they pass over The revises of China Cupboard generally go round by me, but this – with the mask and correction seems not to have done so. Things were badly hurried in June
Yours truly
C M Yonge
