Charles Edward Lawrence [C. E. Lawrence] (1870-1940), editor of the Quarterly Review, 1922-1928 [Clement King Shorter (1857-1926), English journalist and critic; John Murray Ltd, London publishers]

On letterhead of The Quarterly Review, 50A Albermarle Street, London, W1. 16 October 1926.

2pp., 12mo. Very good, on lightly-aged paper. He is sending the copy of P. C. Wren's 'Beau Geste' (published by the publishers of the 'Quarterly Review', John Murray Ltd, in 1926), and assures Shorter that he must not 'pay for this further review-copy'. He will be happy to give Shorter's message to the photographers Greenhough & Co., 'indeed, they shall see your letter, or at least the personal part of it'. He is sorry that Shorter's 'process of getting well is not to be more rapid', and asks to be informed when he can pay a visit.
