[Manchester,] 5 December 1860 
Dear Moor, 

Herewith at last the famous post office order for £2—payable 
Charing Cross since IJ didn’t know of a Money Order Office closer 
to you; let me know for future occasions.

Lupus has specially requested me to tell you in advance how 
much he enjoyed the dressing-down you gave Mr Simon. The 
more I read of the book," the better it pleases me. But shocking 
misprints and spelling mistakes. Once there’s Russian instead of 
Austrian Emperor. Moreover, it looks bad when all the foreign 
words that your wife wrote in roman characters are printed in 
roman type. This invariably happens in the case of foreign 
printers and special precautions have to be taken to avoid it. 

What you have omitted are résumés. E.g. at the end of the 2 
chapters: ‘Bristlers’ and ‘Brimstone Gang’; again, after ‘Police 
Matters’, after all the personal business (i.e. before the ‘Studies’), 
and elsewhere, résumés would also have been appropriate, for in 
that way you would have presented your philistine ad oculos” with 
a general impression. It would have meant only four extra pages 
and would have been extremely effective in a book in which the 
material and the innumerable names—the latter pretty well 
unknown to the said philistine—tend to be somewhat overwhelm- 
ing; it would also have brought out the artistry of the whole 
arrangement, which is truly admirable. 

How is your wife? 

Your 
F. E.
