Scope and content

Omega Workshops Ltd [using headed paper from Everard Meynell's "Serendipity Shop", Mayfair]. - Apologises for not being able to 'account for those few copies' [of "Lucretius on Death"]; thought that Trevelyan might perhaps have had more copies than were debited to him. Thinks it a 'fairly near account', though payment does not seem to have been received for several of the copies counted as sold by Omega, that is 'entirely our fault'. Cheque enclosed in settlement. Thanks Trevelyan for his 'tolerance in the matter'. Notes in a postscript that he is now working with Everard Meynell at his bookshop; thinks that Trevelyan may be interested in some of his books, which are 'chiefly 17th cent'.
