He asks Raynes that, when he writes to Luzac, would he inform the company that the volumes Storey has listed will be out of print after those undertaken by Luzac.

Letter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes to state that he met Raynes' clerk when leaving the office that morning who had given him the numbers of the volumes requested by Luzac.

Letter from C.A. Storey to W.L. Raynes to state that he would prefer the investments to stand in the names of Gibb (who is in Oxford) and Arberry as they are both younger than him and likely to hold the stock for a prolonged period.
