Summary
Asking him to "...hold over the sheets : I want 'em bound, & must find a binder. Meanwhile this nest of cupboards is far too small for anything more than that is in it already; asking if he sent him a quotation for "piffle" and saying that he thinks it is a different word from "piffer;" asking him to return "Gil Blas" to a bookseller in Haymarket on his account and concluding "Those slips I sent you last night are all I've had."
