"Dear Mrs. Doris Langley Moore, Thank you very much indeed for your kind gift of the E. Nesbit book, and the inscription, which I value very much. I did not acknowledge the book immediately because I was just going off into the country, and I took it with me to read..."

"Dear Mrs. Moore, Very many thanks indeed for letting me see the two extracts, which I herewith return. There is, of course, nothing that I could wish altered.

"Dear Madam, I knew E. Nesbit very well, and should be glad to give you any assistance that I could..."
