James Kearsley, Esq.,

Bow Library,

564 Roman Road,

Bow, E.3.

 

22nd November, 1954.

 

Dear Sir,

 

Thank you for your letter of February 18. I'm afraid that we cannot help you with regard to a copy of KEW GARDENS as we only have one file copy. Presumably your friend is anxious to possess the original edition as if he wants to read the story, it is, of course, included in A HAUNTED HOUSE.

 

I am sorry not to be able to help you.

 

Yours faithfully, | for The Hogarth Press Ltd.
