Miss Lewis4 probably explained to you over the telephone this morning that I won't be going out in the evening until I get over the swollen face and red eye which are the wind-up of a cold I couldn't take care of. It will all be over in a few days I'm sure, but I'd better not try to dine with you tomorrow night. I'm not very uncomfortable, and the splendid royalty report5 is an inspiring incident in life.
Please send me down the copy of "A Lost Lady"6 if it has not gone to the printers, and I'll make a few verbal changes to save trouble in the proofs.
Hastily W. S. C.
