Announces RLS has sent prefatory poem for fourth edition from Samoa; proposes illustrated edition with MacGeorge drawings

So happy about the poem Stevenson sent him. Accepts the critique of Stickit stories. How he’s being compared constantly with Barrie, writes about…

Congratulates on birth; reports The Stickit Minister in third edition after five months (compared to three years for Auld Licht Idylls)

Promises to ensure Watt offers book to Unwin; apologises for missing letter; requests missing cheque

Explains all literary matters now handled by Watt; mentions Lilac Sunbonnet placement and American interest

Requests accommodation for September 24th when preaching for Dr Whyte in Free St George's

Thanks for the help. We go back on Friday. Mentions the Pulscaig (which I’m taking as Pulscaig Burn, a way up to Loch Enoch)

first letter to Glenhead after first time in the hills with John. Geology and lots about the local area and Ruth’s wish to go to Loch Enoch.

Writes praising Stickit and with a poem. This is what all the fuss will be about for the next year. Compares Crockett to Barrie.

Thanks for cheque; reports good progress with abundant story commissions; brief note after return from absence
