Dr Sir: Yours just received. O dear! Bliss promised to be sure & attend to everything right along—proofs, elcectros & all—& he also promised to cable you date of publication, at my expense, two or three weeks before issuing. We issued, here, a week ago. Too late to telephone him, to-night, but I will hurry your note to him.

Ys Truly
