              Draft letter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes to state his agreement with the movement of the money and to return the signed cheque. He suggests that Luzac will not be able to undertake much regarding sorting their publication stock and explains about their current disorder.

              Draft letter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes in which he writes that for the volumes already asked for by Luzac, he thinks the Trust is committed to Cox & Allen for the binding but when Luzac require further volumes then perhaps the Ministry of Supply should be approached in order for Heffer to be able to undertake the binding.

              Draft letter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes to inform Raynes that he had too been to the store and was unable to find the missing signature. He cannot say it is definitely not there due to the volume of material. That makes 3 volumes that they are unable to complete. Storey suggests they ask Dow & Lester fs they have any further odd parcels. He also inform Raynes that he has received the duplicate minute book from Ellis' administrators. He then refers to a resolution passed by the Trustees concerning stock at Dow & Lester. He also supplies some quotations from Luzac's letter concerning their representative's trip to Cambridge.

              Draft letter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes in which he enquires regarding the "odd parcels" still at Dow & Lester. He also asks Raynes to check Fleming's bill to ascertain the number of facsimiles that he supplied. He also writes concerning the possible purchase of the books in Ellis' library and the inadvisability of paying a large sum if many of them can already be found in other libraries (see GMT/1/3/7-GMT/1/3/9).
