Printed notepaper for 21 Maxwell Street, Glasgow. - Encloses note from eldest surviving son of Mrs Gray [mother of poet David Gray]; financial support of the family; Macmillan's have not returned David Gray's MS; Mr Maclehose thinks they will not publish any more of his work. Asks Houghton to enquire after the MS for Mrs Gray's sake. Postscript: Macmillan's promised to bring out another volume from which Mrs Gray should receive £30, but perhaps it should not be urged now.
Enclosed: letter, 12 Nov. 1869, from Andrew Gray to William Logan: has obtained the £6 from the Bank; very grateful to Logan and other friends for looking after their interests. Merkland, 1 f.
