Dear Mr. Joyce,

I think we shall be able to publish your play in January. I should like to bring it out before that but I am afraid it will be impossible. Proofs shall be sent to you as soon as I can get them from the printer. But getting proofs from printers is a difficult job in these days. They are all working with depleted staffs.

I am sorry to read what you say about your sight. When you next write please tell me more. I hope it is only a temporary trouble that will pass. Sincerely yours,
