I hear such wonderful tributes.
Your wife must feel satisfied &
proud of the appreciation of your labours.
Higher praise cd. not be given than
that such a book shd. be circulated
to every school in the United Kingdom,
& that is what several people have
said to me. This line requires
no answer I have just tossed the
contents of the inkstand over the
page, please forgive I have no time
to rewrite. This is an inadequate
line, but I am still suffering from last
night's emotions. They tell me I
shd. send the book to the Maharaja of Mysore,
so may I have one more copy, then I will
wait before ordering the next consignment
