Dear Mr. Joyce,
Thank you very much for your letter of the 9th.[1] There is no reason why you should
not
send me the verse, as I might be able to dispose of some of it to
magazines.
I have not yet got a decision from Messrs. Secker about the novel.
They are a little slow, but I have to be lenient with them at the moment. I
hope they will take it up.
Yes, I will see Mr. Ezra Pound about the play.
Mr. H. G. Wells rang me up on the telephone the other day, asking
for news of you. He had heard that you were in serious difficulty.[2] I told him that I had not heard of
it, but
that if there were anything he could do to help us I would certainly let him
know.
