THE AUTHOR OF "TRIXIE"
The Vicarage,
Old Kensington.My dearest Chloë,
I want you and dear Bisham to know that the Authors' Society is sending a Committee to the Sloane Street Safe Deposit to-morrow at midday to investigate my claim to be the author of "Trixie" and "Edgar and Lilian." It is only right that Bisham should have an opportunity of being present, and I cordially invite him to make one of our number. You, too, my dear, of course. My warmest love to Bisham and yourself.
Your affectionate
Father.
