Summary
Sending New Year's greetings and asking him if he would object if he should publish a story with a character based upon Mr. Owen's own public persona (evidently a reference to the character of "Professor Megalow", featured in Blackmore's 1884 novel The remarkable history of Sir Thomas Upmore).
