Dear Mr. Buchan

I have just finished "Huntingtower", & should like to send you a line of thanks for the breathless interest & pleasure enjoyed in reading your exciting & delightfully written tale, & to congratulate you on the success with which you have entered into those lands of romance & adventure for ever glorified to youth & old age alike by your Scottish predecessors of immortal fame, - adding just the touch of modern Bolshevist possibility & of wolf-cub

"Scout" lore to make us feel thoroughly up to date, though dealing with princesses & poets, with pirate & prisoners. I looked at the Jacket & covers, at the paper & printing of this 7/6 issue very critically, & congratulate your Firm on having at 5/, produced so well dressed a volume as my small effort. I hope you have had good sport - this late summer weather here is doubly dear after August rain & cold.

Very sincerely yours Agnes Jekyll [ST: Lady Jekyll]
