Summary
Anticipating that this might arrive before the "typescript posted a day or two ago" and describing writing habits, "that I write two or three similar letters to one friend and not ever an urgently needed PS [?] to another", apologizing for not "any one word of gratitude or recognition, whne I wrote, concerning my copy of Joan of Arc!" and hoping "soon to be deeply drowning in it" and "was very glad to find Edward Garnett there"; and complimenting Wagenknecht's introductory pages and mind.
