My dear London,
I am indeed very sorry to hear of your accident ,
although I hope that "by thetime this letter reaches you you
will have "begun to forget it.
You are correct in the matter of royalties and
I have written to the Macraillan Company saying that it is my
error, my letter having been written without reference to
documents on the subject. I have also informed Macmillan's
that we will put the "Kempton Y/ace Letters" in hand at once.
As for the long term Agreement which I suggested,
this was only to show my spirit and attitude towards you. So
long as you and I deal directly I think there will be no
difficulty whatever "but as soon as we get a third party between
us ©id especially a third party which, however upright, has none
the less an interest in placing your books elsewhere than with
us, there is always danger of trouble.
HThe Call of the Xlild- I think very good and
hope we can arrange to tetce It.
Mr. Jack London
Piedmont,
Alameda Co.
Calif crnla.
