Philadelphia, May, 1835.
My Dear Sir,

I send you by our faithful and trustworthy friend (Maywood), an entire copy of my book, and also a second copy of the preface I wish published with it. The gentleman
402 MEMOIRS OF JOHN MURRAY
who has taken charge of them for me is very desirous of knowing you. He is a countryman of your own, and as far as I know, an exceedingly “decent body.” Pray receive him for my sake and like him for his own. You can’t think how sorry I am that I didn’t accept your positive offer of 400 guineas for my book. I thought it a shabby one to be sure, but I’ve a great notion it will not fetch sixpence, and that’ll be shocking, won’t it. Pray tell me if it don’t.

Yours very truly,
Fanny Butler.
