Summary
Asking if he would "...consider an article by a practical merchant seaman upon the question of manning the Navy...I am a contributor to the 'Cornhill Magazine', the 'Spectator' and several other high class journals on nautical matters, and it may be that my name is known to you. I should have sent the M.S. to you direct but thought it perhaps best to enquire before troubling you to look at it."
