Typed Letter Signed to Miss Eileen Cond,
saying I'm so glad you liked BLOODY INSTRUCTIONS, her first novel, I think writers must be very sensitive plants - you've no idea what a 'fillip' a little appreciation gives us, Miss Cond's address in Sidbury (Devon) made me quite homesick, she has signed the bookplate, I'm new to this you know; and... a little self-conscious about it, 1 side 8vo., Maplewood Cottage, Francklyn Street, Halifax, Nova Scotia, 9th January
