Dear Mr. Hill —

At present writing this thing is I believe all right — The book-binder however assures me that as it was also the first time it left his hands, & that the cover may always show a tendency to warp, because of the linings, or flaps, beneath. Since the back & the flaps seem quite flat, & it is these that will support the contents, I hope this condition will not prove fatal to the usefulness of the thing. —

All greetings — from L.T.
