Headed notepaper: The Society of Authors (Incorporated) President: George Meredith O.M. 39 Old Queen Street, Storey's Gate, SW. Includes lengthy list of Council members, Committee of Management members and Sub-Committee members. Also listed is G. Herbert Thring. Secretary and Solicitor. Signed.
'I am in receipt of your letter with enclosures. I fear you have not given me anything like sufficient information. You have given me no details of the contract existing between yourself and the Aldine Publishing Co. for your series of stories; you have given me no details as to the dates on which the first three stories were produced and the date on which you delivered the last story. It appears to me that unless you can produce some substantial evidence bearing on the date of delivery of your copy and of the last story, the success of your demand may be doubtful as it will be a matter of oath against oath. With regard to the first story of the new set I should also like full details of the contract. When these come to hand if I am undecided as to your position I will ask our Solicitors what view they take of the case. I must, however, have all the correspondence bearing on the matter and a fully detailed statement before I can do anything.'
