‘Are you open to consider a reprint school story? Nearly 20 years ago (in 1886) I wrote a story which appeared in a journal called 'The New Boys Paper' - (Long since dead) I retained the copyright as I wanted Messrs Blackie of Edinburgh to publish the story in book form – This idea fell through and the story has never been re-published –I am now writing a school story which is appearing in 'True Blue' and which is making a hit in a small way – This has made me think of the old story and I have turned up the numbers – The story really reads remarkably well – The hero to my maturer judgment is a solemn prig but the fun is fast and furious and the invention is amazing –The story is called 'Barrington’s Fag' but of course the title could be altered - Shall I send it along? You can have either the original numbers or a pruned and revised copy of the story which I prepared for Messrs Blackie.'
On verso - diary notes.
