Wildwood Hampstead Feb February 26th Dear Mr. Chapman

I see you advertise this month a sixth edition of the Head of the Family.— Do you not think that out of the profits of all this you could spare some addition to the £150 you gave me? – I know it is not a right – & yet it seems hardly unfair. – Has anything been settled about the French translator whose letter your broker sent me & I asked him to answer?

I have not been able to work this winter – so may not be able to finish my present book for months – so that it becomes important to me to gather up all I can. –

My head is tired out with having worked so hard when I was young – & now when I could get any amount of pay, I can’t write.

yours sincerely DMulock
