Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, St Paul's House, Warwick Square, London. - Is sorry that Trevelyan finds the setting in the proofs of his translation of Aeschylus ["The Oresteia"] unsatisfactory. Has asked for an explanation and revised proof from the printers. Trevelyan will not be charged for these mistakes. The slight misalignment of some letters is caused by the use of machine type.

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, St Paul's House, Warwick Square, London. - Has sent Trevelyan twelve copies of his "Oresteia" translation, and hopes he is pleased with the work. Has also sent out the 26 copies to address as requested. At a directors' meeting on Monday, it was decided to delay the sending out of review copies until after Christmas, to get better publicity; Trevelyan should contact him if he is not happy with this arrangement.

Hodder & Stoughton Ltd, St Paul's House, Warwick Square, London. - Trevelyan's "Oresteia" is published today, and review copies were sent out yesterday afternoon. Names the papers from Trevelyan's list to whom it was thought not worth sending a copy; as Trevelyan is defraying the cost of the book himself, he may like to be more extravagant.

Pen Rose, Berkhamsted. - Thanks Bob for telling Hodder and Stoughton's to send her the book [his translation of Aeschylus's "Oresteia"], which arrived on Friday; sends a postal order for five shillings in payment. Will send this copy to Sir Rennell Rodd, and when she receives the copy from Hatchard's it will go to her father; they both know the "Agamemnon" 'by heart', which she fears she does not. The translation is 'really grand'.
