"I am glad you think the memoir is what it should be. I am writing today to Mr. Wood, and will enclose a copy of the letter with this..."

"I enclose a copy of Mr. Wood's reply- think it better not to send the original through post. We are now at a stage when it is necessary to agree upon terms..."

"I was very pleased to receive your letter this morning and to hear that Mr. Wood has raised no objection to Jessie's letters being quoted. As you say, this lets us get down to business, so business first!..."

"I now return the manuscript, with I think all necessary corrections, except that I have left the footnote with reference to 'Muriel has sent me some mauve primroses' for you to add..."
