May 16 — /84 1884 Dear Mr. Phayres

I hope you saw & settled everything with Mr. Noel Paton. — I have sent "Miss Tommy" to press at once — in one vol volume form — & hope to hear from you with the least posible delay — the day on which it may be published in London — & if Messrs Harper choose — in New York also. —

I sent with this the paper Mr. Alden said there was no room for it in Harper's Magazine — but I think it will exactly do in "Harper's Young People". — The artist — still almost a girl — is a grand-daughter of Robert Chambers — (W & R.C. of Edin Edinburgh ) — & the Atelier I have described is half-filled with American girls. — Will you send it to the Editor — who has already had a paper of mine — very similar in character — "The House-boat" —

Very truly yours DMCraik —
