Summary
Asking him not to press Col[burn] & B[entley] for the accounting of sales but rather "...wait till my new work is out...for from what they have done to others, I believe them capable of any base vengeance towards myself;" adding that he hopes to publish in January; saying he had a letter from Lady Morgan which "...puts me on my guard...;" questioning, in a postscript, a change made to a statement by Mr. Bentley contrary to his instructions.
