Dear Mohr, 

Enclosed 3 B. articles. I wanted to work on the Windham today if possible but firstly the particulars are still very confused and it is absolutely necessary to await the official report for this since everything is being hushed up so far – and secondly I had no time this afternoon – could scarcely look through the 3 articles again; I am also too chilled to risk going into town at 12 o’clock tonight and posting the letter. Tell Dana the material is not yet complete. 

Have you sent my C. list to Dana? If not, do so now, so that he can reply in time; his C. is again ludicrously incomplete. 

Borodino unfortunately could not be made shorter, since the battle has so far been depicted quite falsely. 

Yours, 
F.E.I
