Autograph Letter Signed to L. S. Wood
saying that "you are quite right. But suppose that Philip had won as Humphrey and his father hoped and the .Fenel[?] it would have meant the end of everything for Aubrey. The Fenel[?] and his lot would naturally want to know who Carlo Manucci was and Cynthia would think that she had betrayed her lover. But the hunt for Carlo Manucci was up without that. I am very glad that you liked the book because I have never written a book with so much pleasure, or under so much compulsion and I am bound to say - though I don't think it is a regret, in so short a time. I had rather set my heart on Fire Over England being read and your letter was therefore a very great comfort to me ..", 2 sides 8vo., with original autograph envelope, Hotel Sarciron, Le Mont-Dore headed paper, 17th July, no year but circa
