Creator
S.R. Crockett
Description
Of course will help as soon as can and welcome; plenty of money on way, sees way to over two thousand next year; curiously hasn't come yet; never got but hundred pounds for Raiders owing to Unwin's plan of paying only to year before (nominally to let him make up American and Colonial accounts, really to keep poor author waiting); doesn't touch anything worth having till September 30th this year (in six months); if friend cares to send bill for say October 8th at 6 months for fifty pounds would sign it payable at shop; has to go abroad to recover time and get up matter for Lochinvar and will cost something; Lilac, Playactress etc won't realise till next year; feels enormously indebted for friend's long generous belief in him and George's also, now fair way to being realised
