Dear Sir
If there are no “Occident traces” in the printed off matter, we will not say anything more of the few errors the Biography contained. But please look, and let me know whether the Occident head lines have indeed been retained. I need not ask you to be careful to remove the traces in succeeding portions. If 130 have been printed off they will be enough.
As I am writing hurriedly, I cannot stop to recollect where Hebrew occurs
in the copy, nor did I know that I omitted a letter in shilling's?. But nothing is more probable.
I am sorry you took the trouble to look up the queried word in the last copy in a Spanish dictionary. The word being Portuguese, you would not likely find it among Cathi? generally gentry who are proverbially exclusive.
I think it would be better for you to address the Benjamins direct— Address Benjamin Bros— Manchester. If you like however, as I correspond
with them I will address them for you.
How is it we get the occident here in the middle of the month? I would like to get it early so that if there are errors in the Biography they may be altered before going to press for the pamphlet.
For the present farewell
I remain yours truly
