London, 11 February 1885 

My dear Sir, 

I shall be glad to send you the proof-sheets of Volume II as soon as 
you let me know whether I shall send them ‘sous bande’ (per book- 
post) or in a closed envelope as a letter.*°' The fact is, that if one gets 
lost, it will be impossible to replace it until the work is completed. 
By the time your answer arrives I expect to have two or three for 
you. 

I thank you very much for the offer you made me some time ago to 
place at my disposal the letters you have from Mr Williams.* At pres- 
ent the manuscripts claim all my time and attention, but the 
moment is sure to come when I shall take advantage of your kind 
offer. 

Have you any news from our mutual friend? since the accident 
which happened to him some time ago? 3%? 

Be kind enough to address in future as stated at foot. 

Yours very sincerely, 
P. Rosher 36%
