June 28 1875
My dear Sir
The price of your new work shall not exceed 14/–1
Our only wish was to obtain a better return for you, which 1/– more would give.
The other copies will not look so clumsy as the one I sent which was not properly pressed.
Did you not quote a price to Appletons, as to what the set of stereotype plates would cost them, & was it £50 or less.?2
The Foreign copies shall not be posted before Thursday or Friday.3
Yours faithfully | Robt. Cooke
