Summary
Offering to help with her printer; saying "I am told, my dear Miss Barrett, that you are making yourself ill with printers' proofs. Fie on't! What are a few days? Besides, here am I - 'standing and waiting.' Let me help you. I mean - if you like to send me some proofs with your final (Oh, dread word!) revision, and the printers' address, with a note of 'authority' from the AUTHORESS, I will go to the printing office and see the things done."
