Sir,
Having added the Editorship
of this magazine to my duties on
the Pall Mall Gazette my thoughts
at once turned to you, in the hope
that you would let me have a 
poem for publication in this
very widely circulated serial.
Will you have the kindness to

inform me if you have such
a poem by you__not too long__
& unpublished, of course-- &
preferable, one which would lend
itself to illustration? And also
on what terms you would let me
have such a poem? And of you
haven't [one] this , if you would
write one?
Awaiting the favour of your
reply, & in the hope that your
health is in a satisfactory
condition. 
I am, Sir
Faithfully yours,
M. H. Spielmann,
Editor
I send a copy of the magazine herewith

Dear Sir,
After some months'
delay I publish in this month's
Magazine of Art (which will be 
next month's in America) your
poem of "20 years"; and I should
be glad to hear from you if you
think the drawing in any way
adequately expressed your feelings.
In the hope that your
health has improved
I remain,
Faithfully yours
