Dear Sirs,
My agent having in vain endeavored to treat with you for “The Cloister” has gone elsewhere.
As I shall not receive a dollar if you print on the Pubs. [p. 2] and as in truth there is hardly room for two in it during a civil war. I solicit your forbearance under all circumstances. And, in connexion, as you wished to have a new serial tale by me, will you now that I am free from all engagements and can select [p. 3] my theme and treatment to suit the mode of publication, make me an offer; as liberal a one as you like: for I am getting sour at the contrast between my popularity in the States, and the remuneration.
I am
Dear Sirs
Yrs faithfully
Charles Reade | |
