“
As we have not room for Mr. Sennett’s paper, in consequence of its arriving so late in the month, I
return it as you desire.Will you be good enough to leave instructions in the office that if ‘Aliquis’ or
anybody else sends about papers offered for the Miscellany, the reply is that his communication will be
answered on the last day of the month?”
