Dear Louis
You wrote me a letter of great snot which was quite undeserved as the Casuarina Tree was returned to you weeks before you left.
As to the other matter, my only aim was to dig £100 out of Goldston [Edward Goldston] for you, & I saw no other means of acting (in your proximate absence) than the one I suggested. Well, it's all old history now, & I hope you're flourishing in every way. You may have heard rumours of slight escapades of my own, but only some 772% of them are true. The rest are understated.
Do let me have a cheery line. A new book, Riding the Nightmare by Ward Greene, with a small sketch of me, rather good as not too photographic, & a very full clear portrait of Bill Seabrook & his wife.
Yrs
A.C.
