Dear Mr Buchan

I must thank you for your letter, and say it would give me great pleasure to make your acquaintance. I am generally in London for a few weeks in the summer, & will try & arrange a meeting. I have been much amused with a story Mr. Murray tells me of

a certain misprint - "bred a puppy and grew up a retriever."!

Your truly

James A Home

I have forgotten to thank you for another pleasure you gave me besides the article, that novel of yours, 'John Burnet of Barns'. It interested me immensely.
