Yrs of Aug 30. Pity mine of July 27 missed you. Came back by same post. It says practically all I need to say now—except this.

     

All is now changed: I have got the 0 [cunt] I need at last. I must say something very serious indeed. You must absolutely get your spelling correct. Work daily with a dictionary: don't take lessons. Try to get an idea of the general principles underlying orthography. Speed's Etymological Dictionary can be a vast help.

     

In great haste.
