My dear Ellis / I havent said a / word about my disappointment / except to the Post / Office. I will be / dumb - indeed by your / discression in speech / I supposed you meant / that; / but you letter / gives me hope / I am not a pedant & / originals are not / neccessary to my life / but I do like / to see big work, & this / has been a grievous / disappointment to me / Yours very truly / EB-J
