Dear Constable & Co.
I have a customer wanting A. Crowley White Stains and Confessions of Aleister Crowley; can you supply these please or failing that, would you kindly send the enclosed letters to Mr. A. Crowley.
I must apologise for troubling you, but I was advised [illegible] you as being the only way I would be able to obtain the books.
Obediently yours,
E.H. Thompson
