Dear Madam,

We believe that a book on Reptiles
by you, written in a popular manner, would have
some vogue and we should like to know if you
would care to consider the question of writing
such a work.

Should you not have the time to write
a book of this description perhaps you may have
some of your contributions to magazines and news-
papers beside you which might be issued in Book
form. We shall be very glad to be associated with
you in any volume from your pen.

Trusting to hear from you,
We remain,
Yours faithfully,
T. Werner Laurie & Co.

Ans. 27. VII. 23
To have no articles
Will let him know if have scope later on. MP
