‘Your yarn of Potts is quite excellent. I suppose it is a take off of our “Monk Mortimer, The Man with the Thousand Millions”. We had better call the series “Bank Baltimore, The Man with the Million Thousands” so as to bring it home to the readers. Your character of the Keeper is very good with his superior airs. You might let us have his private opinion of Pots [sic] and also let the other character refer to him as Keeper. Perhaps the first story wants just a little alteration or rather a few lines of introduction to emphasise who Pots [sic] and his keeper are so that they will be impressed upon the mind of the reader and the relations they bear to each other. If you ever fancy doing some Kenneth Mugg's in the style you might turn us out some of about 2,500words. I enclose your yarn for alteration and intend to run them in place of Comrades True giving a few adventure stories of the Comrades in Puck as was my previous decision. We are in want also of Comic stories of a broad but natural style for the other three ½d papers. They should be 2,200 words and either single stories or series. The name of the keeper also should be changed.'
